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.

The help menu was amongst the first things I tried. ;)

Well, actually, I looked on the AIM homepage, and couldn't find anything about chatting with more than one person at a time - I didn't look on an AIM messenger thingy itself, but I shall tonight.

It's probably dead easy, and I just missed it completely - it was very late when I tried it, that's my excuse.

Here's the general help http://help.aol.com/aimhelp/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=http--helpchannelsaolcom-kjumpadparticleId185589&sliceId=&dialogID=92574835&stateId=1%200%2092646165

And then here's the specific "how to guide", I don't see why it wouldn't work for AIM as well as AOL: Member Created Chat Rooms (http://help.aol.com/aimhelp/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=http--helpchannelsaolcom-kjumpadparticleId185589&sliceId=&dialogID=92574835&stateId=1%200%2092646165). I'll do a test from my aim account (by the way, it's auroranovarum if you want to look for me)

hmm. it looks as if you're an aol member, you can create a chat room where anyone can join in, but if you're an "AIM" member, you can only invite specific individuals into a chat.

How annoying.

Oh, bless you! I'm stupid, I couldn't find that at all. Thanks!

On AIM I'm... actually, I can't remember my AIM name. I will find out when I get home. Heading home from work now, will be back online in two or three hours.

Thank you so much.
