Webheads chat logs from June
10, 2001
Meet the people in the chat today
and Phil from France, BJB from
Pennsylvania, SusanneN and DiaLog from the Tapped In Help Desk, Renata from
Germany, and IvanHernandez-Romero from Mexico
It was a wild yet productive day in the Webheads online classrooms. The
teachers Maggi, John, and I were in Tapped In and Homestead at the appointed
hour, with Michael and Ying Lan joining later. In Tapped In we were discovered
by Phil Benz, an online teacher of some repute (Maggi and I are both
participating in an online workshop with Phil as facilitator). The first thing
that Phil noticed was that my office needed sprucing up, so he determined to
teach us how to do it. First he took us on a tour of his office, which is where
Ying Lan found us when she came to /join vances. Phil has developed a virtual
maze of nooks and crannies in his office which he creates first in ASCII and
then produces the graphics for them, and he delighted in showing us all the way
to the bar where we could sample his rums and coffees. Then it was back /home
to Vance's office, by way of /reception where we picked up BJB to assist us.
Phil was projecting tutorials on office maze creation on all our screens when
Michael appeared and wondered what was going on. Ying Lan meanwhile had moved
out to ICQ where she was telling Vance about her weekend adventure hiking in
the mountains and staying overnight with the local people there, which is when
Felix appeared, also in ICQ. Due to these distractions in addition to recurring
demands from the night-class teachers at his real office, Vance was having
trouble concentrating on the exact and exacting instructions for creating his
new office layout. Actually things would have worked well except that the
instructions included typing a dot or full stop and pressing return, and Vance
took this to be a bullet or a spacer, which must be a common error (funny they
didn't choose some other character to be a significant portion of the
data-entry routine). Meanwhile Felix had joined us at Tapped In, and some other
people had arrived in Vance's office with whom I was unable to talk at all
while trying to interact with the Tapped In server in the course of following
instructions to revamp my office. In the end Ying Lan got sleepy and left, John
had to go to church, and Phil departed right as I was having another go at
trying to figure out what the server was trying to tell me which was preventing
me from following directions as given in the instruction sheets. The two
newcomers left as I was trying to get back to the conversation, but Michael
stayed on to figure out how to create his own icon or avatar to represent him
at Tapped In. With Michael talking to Maggi about her new learning node at KIKO
(Knowledge In Knowledge Out) I had a bit of a breather and was able to
concentrate on task and install my new office drawing in a few seconds and
keystrokes.

rif 6/10/01 11:17 AM Hi Vance, the bill about the future of the Internet
in Turkes was accepted ///
Vance 6/10/01 11:19 AM Hi. So this means that there will be
restrictions, that anyone wishing to put a site up in Turkey has to submit each
page, graphic, etc. to a review board?
rif 6/10/01 11:20 AM yes...that's true
Vance 6/10/01 11:21 AM How can that possibly work? There must be
millions of such pages and graphics, and it would be impossible to keep a site
current with delays to be expected in awaiting the review board's decisions and
approvals.
rif 6/10/01 11:22 AM we will wait and see. The city governorship will be
responsible with this.
Vance 6/10/01 11:30 AM What is to prevent Turks from hosting their sites
abroad?
rif 6/10/01 11:32 AM nothing. maybe thst will what is going to happen
soon
Vance 6/10/01 11:34 AM I have worked for years (5 years in Saudi Arabia,
10 in Oman, 4 in the UAE) in cultures with stong secular elements, and I know
that once you place restrictions like this on intellectual activity, the course
that most people take is that of least resistance. In other words, the
stimulation that the Internet can provide to the intellectual and scientific
climate in Turkey will be dampened considerably by holding all ideas up to
religious scrutiny, with the result that few will be willing take the trouble
or the risk.
rif 6/10/01 11:34 AM applause....
Vance 6/10/01 11:35 AM Does this mean that sites already up will have to
be taken down?
rif 6/10/01 11:37 AM that was just the start. We don't know how the
procedural steps will come up
Vance 6/10/01 11:41 AM Maybe the pendulum will swing the other way
(another Ataturk perhaps?). How are you affected? Do you have a web site up on
a server in Turkey?

alwayslate 6/10/01 1:38 PM I'm thinking of using the Intranet in my
class. We have a lab with 10 PCs. Do you know any links to download intranet
chat tools?
Vance 6/10/01 1:40 PM Sorry, now my internet went down. I had to log on
using a dialup Intranet chat tools ... I can't think of any that don't use the
Internet, except maybe NetMeeting that uses the IP address I believe
alwayslate 6/10/01 1:44 PM It seems you are having a chat session
today... I'll try to join, but I'm not sure...
Vance 6/10/01 1:52 PM Yes, we'll be there in 2 hours, welcome

In?"
VanceS says, "no way"
JohnSte says, "Not at all."
PhilipAB . o O ( though Vance's office could do with a bit of sprucing
up. )
PhilipAB says, "<g>"
JohnSte says, "Sorry I missed class last week. I had a hard disk
crash."
VanceS says, "Phil, I'll hve to get you to help me do that"
MaggiD [guest] says, "we keep trying to tell him that"
JohnSte says, "It's better than mine. I have coffe all over the
floor."
PhilipAB says, "Actually, the Tapped In helpfile is very explicit."
PhilipAB says, "IIRC, you can find it by clicking on "help" in the upper
right."
MaggiD [guest] says, "Maggi smiles"
PhilipAB says, "If you'd like to tour my office, I'm free for a few
mintues..."

PhilipAB [WebTeach] hiccups
MaggiD [guest] says, "must be lunch"

PhilipAB asks, "Vance, you mean to design your office?"
VanceS says, "Where is the url for hte nonworking link john"
VanceS says, "Yes Phil"
JohnSte says, "It's not that the link isn't working. It that it reports
that the software is no longer available."
PhilipAB says, "OK, you know, I got it to the point where I could
prepare all the files offline, pre-load them into clipmate, and create a room
in mere minutes online."
JohnSte says, "Sound useful, Phil. Can you explain (so I can do my
office, too)."
MaggiD [guest] exclaims, "ah! awesome!"
PhilipAB says, "Just two last questions, then I'll let you get back to
your agenda..."
VanceS asks, "John, give me a starting point url. Is it the one in the
weekly email?"

over the ascii furniture.

MaggiD [guest] says, "since when do you do what "I" say
Vance...hihihi"
VanceS says, "only when it pleases me"
MaggiD [guest] says, "ok..Philip had two questions to be shot
for..."
MaggiD [guest] asks, "are you American Philip?"
PhilipAB says, "Do y'all want a couple of pointers on office design, or
shall I let you get back to whatever passes for work around here?
<g>"
VanceS says, "LOL"
JohnSte says, "I'd like a couple of pointers, myself."
PhilipAB [WebTeach] pointedly ignores Maggi's crass question.
VanceS likewise
PhilipAB asks, "Y'all *have* seen the Ti helpfile on designing
offices?"
MaggiD [guest] says, "tsk tsk"
PhilipAB [WebTeach] can project if you like.
JohnSte says, "I have."
PhilipAB says, "I started by doing a better ascii drawing..."
MaggiD [guest] says, "another Houdini"
VanceS says, "I've seen it too. Actually I have an internet problem and
a virtual memory shortage at the moment"
MaggiD [guest] says, "is that all...lo0l"
PhilipAB says, "Then did a pictorial version, following the instructions
carefully. To the letter."
VanceS says, "Phil, if you want to bear with us here, I'll dig out where
I got to on room design"
JohnSte says, "My memory is always short."
VanceS asks, "BTW is anyone in Homestead?"
JohnSte says, "Juar"
JohnSte says, "Just Maggi and me."
MaggiD [guest] says, "sheesh...short memory again"
PhilipAB says, "Then I prepared the room design scripts in MS Notepad
and saved them as ascii plain text, ready to paste into the TI interface."
JohnSte asks, "Where's Ying Lan?"
MaggiD [guest] says, "she goes to Homestead first"
PhilipAB asks, "BTW, I never asked you where y'all are from. All in the
UAE?"
JohnSte says, "Go ahead, Phil."
JohnSte says, "No, I'm in Puerto Rico."
MaggiD [guest] says, "I'm in Germany"

MaggiD [guest] says, "ywep"
JohnSte says, "Yep."
PhilipAB says, "Hmmm, the online ESL palce, dedicated to St Jude..."
JohnSte says, "That's me, all right."
PhilipAB asks, "OK, if we want to get serious about office design we
need to look at the same file. Can I project?"
PhilipAB [WebTeach] projects Projections.
---------------
When someone "projects" a website, you will see a new window open on
your computer screen. All you have to do is switch back and forth between the
windows to alternately view the website, or exchange comments and questions
with the other folks here in Tapped In. If you understand all this and are
ready to continue, say so.
---------------
MaggiD [guest] says, "You should have seen the face of the person in
charge of my trainees when I said I had set up a learning center and was
attending an online workshop to design webquests"
JohnSte says, "I'm ready."
VanceS says, "ok, take over phil"
PhilipAB [WebTeach] projects the URL:
http://www.tappedin.sri.com/info/offices.html
PhilipAB says, "You can find this through the "help" button on the upper
right."
JohnSte says, "I've seen it."
PhilipAB says, "The two processes of ascii offices and pictorial offices
are separate."
MaggiD [guest] says, "still grey here"
VanceS says, "Yeah, I've been here too"
MaggiD [guest] says, "ok"
PhilipAB says, "But IMO you should do both, since some people login
without the graphic interface."
PhilipAB asks, "Do you plan to do a one-room office or a suite?"
JohnSte says, "I plan to start with one room, and then go to a
suite."
MaggiD [guest] says, "let'sgofor asuite"
PhilipAB says, "If you plan to do a suite, it may be best to "dig" the
extra rooms first, since you'll have to redo the main rooms to include
exits."
JohnSte says, "OK, lets go for it."
PhilipAB says, "If you're going for a suite you do these things:"
MaggiD [guest] says, "sounds like work"
PhilipAB says, "1) dig the rooms"
PhilipAB says, "2) design the ascii for the main room"
PhilipAB says, "3) program in the ascii"
PhilipAB says, "4) design the .gif file for the pictorial version,
keeping careful note of the clickable area coordinates,"
JohnSte asks, "So how do you dig the rooms?"
PhilipAB says, "then 5) program in the pictorial room version."
PhilipAB says, "Look at the file I projected and click on point (6)"
MaggiD [guest] asks, "et a shovel John?"
JohnSte says, "Looking for it."
PhilipAB says, "The syntax is clearly presented."
PhilipAB says, "I suggest we take the 2 minute tour of my office, then
go to one of yours and do it."
PhilipAB asks, "Ready?"
JohnSte says, "ok"
MaggiD [guest] says, "why not"
PhilipAB says, "When I leave, type /join philipab"
PhilipAB goes home.
JohnSte suddenly disappears.
MaggiD [guest] suddenly disappears.

PhilipAB asks, "Vance, do you want to add a work room to your
office?"
Michael_C [guest] arrives from nowhere.
JohnSte says, "Hi, Michael."
MaggiD [guest] says, "this place looks pitiful compared to Philip's"
Michael_C [guest] says, "Hello dear people."
PhilipAB says, "First I should note that we are all in "say" mode, which
is why we have to preceed all MOO commands with a slash."
VanceS says, "Hi MC, and sure Phil, let's have some fun with it"
MaggiD [guest] says, "Hi mc"
JohnSte says, "You missed the tour of Phil's office."
Michael_C [guest] says, "Bummer"
Ying [guest] arrives from nowhere.
Michael_C [guest] asks, "Can I look on my own?"
VanceS says, "Oh, Ying you came along."
PhilipAB says, "I suggest that the person doing the office design switch
to "type command" mode in the little bow to the left of the text entry
box."
PhilipAB says, "Bonjour, Michael, I'm trying to show how to design
offices."
VanceS says, "OK, but may I ask, how will this affect my
conversation"
BJB says, "I can project a couple of notes that explain the modes"
PhilipAB says, "Let me also project the office deign page again."
JohnSte says, "Please do."
VanceS says, "OK, I can toggle"
Michael_C [guest] asks, "Bonjour Philip. Are you Philip Benz by any
chance?"
MaggiD [guest] asks, "it may shut you up Vance?"
MaggiD [guest] says, "the one and only"
BJB says, "you might want to click on DETACH to make your text window
larger"
PhilipAB says, "Vance, if you want to speak from the "type command"
mode, you preceed your speech with a ""
VanceS says, "Here's the url
http://www.tappedin.sri.com/info/offices.html"
BJB [HelpDesk] projects TYPE COMMAND Mode.
---------------
When the box next to the text input window displays TYPE COMMAND you
must use commands for all communication, navigation, and information. For
example, if you want to 'talk' in TYPE COMMAND Mode you must type a quote (")
and your message; if you want to emote in TYPE COMMAND Mode you must type a
colon (:) and your action. You can also use the THINK, WHISPER, PAGE, and
navigational commands such as UP, OUT, ELEVATOR, and JOIN in the TYPE COMMAND
Mode.
---------------
VanceS says, ""ok"
PhilipAB asks, "Shall I project for the new arrivals? about office
design I mean?"
JohnSte says, "got it."
Michael_C [guest] asks, "Excuse me but huh?"
PhilipAB asks, "Michael, would you like to see a demo of MOO office
design?"
Michael_C [guest] says, "Yes Philip - I would."
PhilipAB says, "We just finished visiting my office..."
BJB [HelpDesk] wonders if Michael knows about url projections?
PhilipAB says, "You can drop in any time at N412"
PhilipAB says, "OK, now before we project, for the new folks..."
Michael_C [guest] says, "OK - ta."
PhilipAB [WebTeach] projects Projections.
---------------
When someone "projects" a website, you will see a new window open on
your computer screen. All you have to do is switch back and forth between the
windows to alternately view the website, or exchange comments and questions
with the other folks here in Tapped In. If you understand all this and are
ready to continue, say so.
---------------
Michael_C [guest] exclaims, "Ready!"
PhilipAB says, "But stick around for now, Michael"
MaggiD [guest] says, "ok"
JohnSte says, "ready"
VanceS says, "Phil has kindly consented to be our guest lecturer for the
evening"
Michael_C [guest] says, "I will stay here P."
PhilipAB [WebTeach] projects the URL:
http://www.tappedin.sri.com/info/offices.html#build
PhilipAB says, "First we're going to dig a new room."
VanceS says, "OK, it didn't launch a new window. It used the old
one"
VanceS says, "THat's ok"
PhilipAB says, "To see the instructions, click on point 6 of the help
file."
MaggiD [guest] says, "ine is still grey"
PhilipAB says, "Vance, when you "project" it always projects over the
last projected page."
JohnSte says, "I was about to ask that."
MaggiD [guest] waves at mc
PhilipAB says, "The syntax to dig a new room is @dig WR|Out to Work
Room"
BJB says, "Guests can't do any cool stuff...only members can build and
create objects"
PhilipAB says, "But only the room owner can do it. Normally."
JohnSte says, "A good reason to be a member."
PhilipAB says, "Yes, members only, but membership is free and easy."
MaggiD [guest] says, "it was faster to sign on as a guest"
JohnSte says, "BJ, I have a question about/for another member."
BJB [HelpDesk] listens to John
PhilipAB [WebTeach] waits for Vance to switch to "type command" mode and
to dig a new room
JohnSte says, "When she signed up, she used the wrong e-mail address and
I got her usernam and password."
JohnSte asks, "How can I get it changed to her own e-mail address?"
BJB [to John]: "I can change the email"
BJB [to John]: "what is her membername?"
BJB . o O ( I don't have many powers, but that is one I can do! )
VanceS wonders if he did it ??
JohnSte says, "LigiaH"
BJB [to VanceS]: "click on UPDATE in the top right of your screen"
VanceS says, "do I have to refresh the screen?""
PhilipAB says, "Vance, if you think you dug the new room, we should be
able to go there by typing /wr"
BJB [to VanceS]: "UPDATE.....NOT REFRESH"
MaggiD [guest] . o O ( a bed would be nice in here to take 5 winks while
the men dig )
BJB [to John]: "what is Ligia's email address?"
PhilipAB says, "Maggi, you could become a member during the time it
takes Vance to dig."
VanceS asks, "Isn't what I did in the logs?"
PhilipAB says, "Then you could do your own office."
BJB [to Maggie]: "I have a bed in my office :-)"
PhilipAB says, "Vance, you must have messed up on the syntax."
MaggiD [guest] says, "I am already"
JohnSte says, "She originally put in
Ligia_Hernandez@eslpalace.every1.com It is supposed to be .net, not .com"
PhilipAB says, "Oooh, BJ, a bed in your office! I should drop in more
often. <g>"
BJB [HelpDesk] shows MaggieD the URL:
http://www.tappedin.org/info/membership.html
PhilipAB asks, "Vance, what have you done so far???"
PhilipAB says, "We're getting off-topic."
BJB [to John]: "It's been changed"
MaggiD [guest] says, "thanks BJB"
JohnSte says, "OK, I'll tell her tomorrow morning when I get to school.
Thanks, BJ"
PhilipAB says, "Vance, did you type: @dig WR|Out to Work Room"
VanceS says, "I don't seem to be able to cut and paste here, so it's
hard to relate"
PhilipAB says, "Vance, you can't cut & paste from the text
window..."
PhilipAB says, "but you *can* do it from the pasteboard."
MaggiD [guest] says, "fess up...you lost the shovel"
VanceS says, "oh, the name of the room is Work"
VanceS says, "Room had wrapped to the next line in the instructions"
JohnSte asks, "Phil, How do you change to command mode?"
PhilipAB says, "I'll need to see the syntax..."
VanceS says, "There's an indication in my logs that a room Work was
created"
PhilipAB says, "John, it's the little box marked "say" with a down
arrow, just left of the text entry box."
VanceS says, "Syntax is what you gave me only it's Work not Work
Room"
JohnSte says, "OK, I found it. Thanks."
PhilipAB says, "Vance, the problem may be in the syntax you used for the
entrance and exit to this room."
SusanneN tiptoes in without a sound
DiaLog follows SusanneN to here.
PhilipAB says, "Vance, did you type @dig WR|Out to Work Room"
SusanneN [helpdesk] knocks politely, good Sunday!
VanceS says, "Hello SusanneN"
JohnSte says, "Hi, Susanne."
SusanneN says, "I ilke to see how to add another room"
PhilipAB says, "Bonjour, Susanne, we're trying some heavy construction
work. Pull up a chainsaw."
SusanneN [helpdesk] gets her axe and saw
VanceS says, "woops seem to have done it again"
PhilipAB says, "Vance, notice the vertical line in the command"
PhilipAB says, "Start over, Vance. Cut & paste from the help
page."
PhilipAB says, "Use CTL+C and CTL+V for the cut & paste."

MaggiD [guest] says, "I don't blame her"
VanceS is looking at point 5
PhilipAB says, "Read down to the instructions."
JohnSte says, "See you later YL"
VanceS is trying to ignore Maggi
MaggiD [guest] says, "as usual"
PhilipAB says, "Now Vance, you can copy the ascii drawing from the upper
left map window and paste it into the text enitor you opened."
PhilipAB . o O ( text editor )
PhilipAB says, "You need to change it so the string (space)WR(space)
appears , for example on the lower wall."
PhilipAB says, "Like this: ____[ WR ] ____"
PhilipAB says, "Tell me when you've done that."
VanceS asks, "Do you mean I should copy my ascii map and work on
that?"
PhilipAB says, "Yes, for starters."
VanceS says, "ok, done that"
PhilipAB says, "Later you can do more elaborate ascii art, before doing
the image work."
PhilipAB says, "Now Vance needs to type: @editoptions
-cut&paste"
PhilipAB says, "As described in point 5 of the help page."
SusanneN [helpdesk] has disconnected.
VanceS says, "so where do I put this __| WR |__"
VanceS asks, "does is matter?"
VanceS asks, "does it I mean?"
PhilipAB says, "Vance, I suggest the lower wall."
VanceS says, "SoI just pick a place (Felix is trying to join us)"
PhilipAB says, "But it could be anywhere, the key is a space both before
and after the clickable link word."
PhilipAB says, "It could be anywhere, even in the middle of the table.
Depends on how you envision your room."
PhilipAB [WebTeach] waits...
VanceS says, "gotcha"
PhilipAB [WebTeach] hopes the rest aren't unutterably bored.
VanceS says, "ok, I've created a drawing"
VanceS says, "They can always talk amongst themselves"
PhilipAB says, "Then line by line, he needs to type in (or paste in) the
instructions from the help file, beginning with: EDIT HERE.DRAWING"
VanceS says, "Besides, they are watching the master(s) at work"
JohnSte says, "Engrossing. I'm already planning my layout."
MaggiD [guest] says, "among other things"
PhilipAB says, "But instead of their drawing, use your drawing."
MaggiD [guest] says, "fat chance Vance...:-)"
PhilipAB says, "Note that I did all my rooms in ascii before drawing
them in Paint Shop Pro."
Michael_C [guest] says, "Bored? I'm multi-tasking."
PhilipAB says, "Vance, this is the tough part. Don't talk until you're
done."
MaggiD [guest] says, "good boy Phil"
Felix [guest] arrives from nowhere.
PhilipAB says, "Usually, you want to do room design when nobody else is
around."

VanceS says, "just starting"
PhilipAB says, "Remember, do it all in one go, no talking in the
middle."
MaggiD [guest] asks, "why miserable?"
JohnSte asks, "The heat?"
Felix [guest] says, "So many problems rocking...."
VanceS arrives from nowhere.
Felix [guest] says, "Well Phil, I dont have a wife right now but I do
have 03 wonderful kids. So I can understand you perfetcly."
VanceS says, "I'm not sure what happened, but I lost contact for a
while"
Michael_C [guest] says, "Oh...so it's *their* fault <g>"

us"

Michael_C [guest] says, "Thanks BJB."
MaggiD [guest] says, "brb"
PhilipAB asks, "page bj is she coming?"
BJB [to Phil]: "she lost her connection"

requires that you follow the examples to the letter."

try to get to grips with making up a room, but I appreciate Phil's trying to
help"
MaggiD [guest] says, "you weren't listening completely to his
instructions"
MaggiD [guest] says, "John and I were here to cover and mc came"
VanceS says, "yeah I couldn't. And even right now,
Felix is asking about
his HTML problem in ICQ"
VanceS says, "It would be relatively easy to assist if we were all in
the same place"
MaggiD [guest] says, "we were"
VanceS says, "Also another complication tonight is our internet keeps
going down so I'm onmy laptop"
VanceS says, "Yeah, that was a great help Maggi, the fact that all
people came here."
MichaelAC has disconnected.
VanceS says, "But YL went off to ICQ to talk to me, and now Felix is
there rather than here, and you know it's harder to keep track of things when
they're in different windows"

MaggiD [guest] says, "hey were being ignored here"
VanceS says, "Hi,"
VanceS says, "MC has come and gone"

MichaelAC says, "We have a hol tomorrow - Queen's B'Day - so I'll be up

VanceS asks, "Good. I can't see it. Is that the one at ... the online
one?"
VanceS says, "Oh, yeah, that's been mentioned at the online course I'm
in"
MaggiD [guest] says, "we have a 4-day weekend coming up"
MichaelAC asks, "No i didn't manage to get my pic - I chose an icon from
Tapped in....maybe if you update?"
MichaelAC asks, "What OL course are you in?"
VanceS asks, "how do you update?"

MaggiD [guest] says, "Phil is running it"
MichaelAC says, "Ah yes - that's how I know his name."
VanceS says, "There are about 150 introductory emails, too much to
follow"
MaggiD [guest] says, "I have a learning center at Kiko"
MichaelAC asks, "Kiko?"
VanceS says, "Oh, that one. That's another one. Just on Tuesdays."
MaggiD [guest] says, "noneed to be sorry...what I do isn't as
8interesting"
VanceS asks, "Does your learning center have a url?"
MaggiD [guest] says, "I think I need to get a PhD to be taken
seriously"
MaggiD [guest] says, "yesitdoes"
MaggiD [guest] says, "but there is nothing there ...yet..."
MichaelAC says, "I may stop taking you seriously if get a PhD."
MaggiD [guest] says, "I doubt it"
MichaelAC says, "Depends on what you do it on..."
VanceS says, "Well, send us the url when you want us to look at it"
MaggiD [guest] asks, "how about chemistry?"
MichaelAC says, "That would be serious."
MichaelAC asks, "ESL and Chemistry?"
MaggiD [guest] says, "why not"
MaggiD [guest] says, "I work with PhD's in a pharmaceutical company"
VanceS says, "I think I'll try this room upgrade while I'm sitting
here"

MichaelAC says, "I see.....look I HAVE to go! Ok - EFL! Good luck with
the room upgrade vance."
MaggiD [guest] says, "or neurology"
