There ought to be a way of showing on this board that you are in FlashChat. Or maybe a simple little marker, like hi-lighting "FlashChat, when it is occupied. I have been going into it once in a while, but been someone there only once in 4 weeks while was in it. Of course, we could simply post here that we are going to be in there at such and such a time, but I think that is too structured- like a town meeting.
Good idea. Either that or work something out like the new Facebook chat so you can have friends and chat right from the website when your logged in.
Good things come to those who bait.
