It's a comm!

Hear ye, hear ye... 

Announcing the arrival of

[profile] redial_the_gate, a comm in which we're going to rewatch all - yes, all - of the Stargate episodes, including the film. Yes, this will take about four years. What, you had something better to do?

It's still in the stage of being set up, so please step carefully around any exposed cables, wear your hard hat at all times, and don't lean against the paint. It'll be fully operational (fingers crossed) for discussion of the film on Tuesday 24th July, just in time for the 10th anniversary of the debut of Stargate: SG-1 (27th July). *gets misty and sentimental*

So dust off that old VHS of Stargate the movie, give it a watch, visit the comm, and join the squee!

And don't forget to bow down in praise to [profile] abyssinia4077, the genius who thought of it in the first place, and the driving force behind setting it up. KNEEL BEFORE YOUR GOD, TAU'RI!

*picks up tools, gets back to work*

Oh, before I forget - does anyone know how to chat to more than one person via IM? So that all the people involved can chat at the same time, in the same window, I mean - like a conference call (I can do the holding-two-separate-conversations-at-once thing, although it does make my head want to explode). Is it easy, or do you have to download a specific IM service? I've failed at teh internetz, and can't work it out.

You can use Trillian with different chat clients, AIM for sure. I'm not so sure about Google or Yahoo, MSN, etc. You can create a chat room in AIM, save the shortcut to it to your desktop and then you can always get back in. People in Trillian, etc can join the chatroom if they know the name. It's a bit more difficult to actually *invite* people into a chat room from Trillian.

Anyway, how muddled was that? My suggestion would be to create a chat room in either Trillian or Aim, remember the name, and then let people know which Messenger service its on and its name and as they say, if you build it, they will come.

Ah... hm. I see I shall be playing around with the settings tonight. That sounds ideal.

I've never used or created chat rooms, so it's all shiny and new to me. Thank you!

You should be able to set up a group chat room through Trillian. Sadly, I have no idea how anymore, since I only used it about three versions ago.

Groovy. I couldn't find it last night, but I shall look again with renewed energy. And not at, like, 12midnight, which may have been part of the problem. :)
