Vance's reaction to the live worldwide jam / chat

Never a dull moment in Webheads. Webheads is getting to be like a party every Sunday noon GMT. You may wonder who the host is, but there are always a lot of people to talk to, and interesting things going on in the side rooms.

Believe it or not, I started out in iVisit and I even have a screen shot of Susanne to prove it, but some friends of mine, Beth and Steve from Hawaii, whom I hadn't seen in a long time, came online with their webcam in Yahoo and kept asking me when I was going to put mine up. With every intention of going back to iVisit, I went over to Yahoo, and Bobbi (my wife) had joined us and was talking to Beth by the time the first Webhead, Chris, had dropped by. I think Venny was next (and his daughters) and next thing you know we had a crowd in Yahoo Messenger. Then when Michael dropped by, the guitars came out ... ok, I admit I was first to get my guitar. Then Chris who had been dutifully interacting in iVisit somehow 'saw' or perhaps sensed the guitars, and next thing you know we had a jam going from Australia to Abu Dhabi to Germany.

So apologies for not sticking to the program, which was meant to be iVisit. Sue has been so patient with us PC people that we really owe it to her to try harder with iVisit. NEXT week hopefully we can spend some time there.

A couple of hints: if you're joining us in iVisit or Yahoo, you might need to upgrade your software. For Yahoo, you need version 5.5. to see everyone's web cams these days (if you don't have it you are told you need to upgrade). And iVisit has a habit of expiring frequenty, so if you haven't used it for a while, you might need to download the new version.

Both are still free, but looking at the way the Internet is going, it seems that both are building in a dependency and a need to frequently upgrade that one or both might try to capitalize on soon. Enjoy the party while it lasts.

Hope to see you next Sunday (wear your party hat).

By the way, no one has yet found my surprise on the Nov 3 chat logs page http://www.homestead.com/prosites-vstevens/files/efi/chat2002/wfw021103.htm

Better hurry, that bag of stale candy isn't getting any fresher.

Let's all have fun!

Vance (Nov 11, 2002)

BOO! Dafne and Teresa's reaction to the cool mouseover

COOL mouse over effect Vance! Now I understand the Boo! you really scared me! Instead of stale candy I would rather have ale! Daf

Vance, another fabulous page that I've just bookmarked. Congrats! The BOO effect is fabulous!! Cheers, Teresa

To get the BOO you may have to hold the mouse on the picture long enough for the BOO to load in. It works best on a Very Fast connection, obviously.

Susanne's reaction to the live worldwide jam / chat

Last Sundays' session in Tapped In was a very entertaining example of the casual and informal way we are working and playing together. At least three new participants joined us, Cindy who is a Tapped In helpdesk trainee from somewhere in USA, Anh from Vietnam who claims to be a good singer, and in particular Yos, the doctor (MD) from the Philipines who has started and followed up on several thought provoking discussion toipcs lately in our English for Webheads mail list. I remember how Yos has told us some time ago, that he can only read mail from his home town, with a slow modem connection, and that he had to travel for five or six hours to get to a place with an internet cafe to use the WWW to read webpages - join us in Tapped In. And now he came to meet us. Respect!

I do wonder how this chaotic experience was for the new people with such a confusing and active session, with people running in all directions, from Yahoo to iVisit and reporting back to the Tapped In party class, asking for advice on how to get here or there? Probably a mixed feeling of amusement and surprised confusion. like most of us have experienced at our first sessions, until the unstructured chat communication mode became a habit. In case you had expected a classroom-alike learning situation, you have indeed beein involved in a challenging experiment

As Vance has explained about this Sunday, a lot of more or less unexpected encounters were taking place(s) in the Tapped In reception (with text chat and web page sharing), as well as in iVisit and Yahoo Messenger (with webcams plus text chats). Of course I had hoped to experience how it works with more than one webcam at a time, too, and for me with my Mac system, this cannot (yet?) be done in YMS. But s still, I enjoyed to hear about how the guitar trio managed to do their jam session rehearsal. One can imagine how terrible the more or less precisely synchronized the music (or noise) may have been :-))

No, this was not a dull day indeed! I've prepared a mad hat for next Sunday, just in case :-)

Tapped In

VanceS teleports to the reception.

Started recording in Reception (#268)[TappedIn] at Sun Nov 10 03:23:35 2002 PST.

VanceS [Webhead] looks in mirror

BJB [HelpDesk] waves hi to Vance

VanceS [Webhead] says, "just checking to see what I looked like"

SusanneN [helpdesk] says, "Hi Vance :-)"

VanceS [Webhead] says, "hi all"

SusanneN [helpdesk] says, "I have been searching for the fine directions page for iVisit that Keiko created some time ago."

SusanneN [helpdesk] says, "But I was unable to track it."

VanceS [Webhead] says, "I think I have some from Gary Cziko"

SusanneN [helpdesk] asks, "Do we meet in Language exchange /english only room?"

SusanneN [helpdesk] says, "the password is langex"

VanceS [Webhead] says, "yeah, that's it"

SusanneN [helpdesk] says, "I think I can find out how to guide by now. But I am not sure it looks exactly the same on my screen (actully, I am almost sure some menus are a little different.)"

BJB [HelpDesk] says, "I keep getting a message that I have to "join this listing in order to connect to its members""

SusanneN [helpdesk] says, "yes, click on the list icon in the bottom or your directory"

BJB [HelpDesk] says, "oooohhhhh, I must have done something right ;-)"

VanceS [Webhead] smiles at BJ

SusanneN [helpdesk] asks, "Sounds like you have my webcam, BJ?"

VanceS [Webhead] says, "Guess I'll come on over"

BJB [HelpDesk] says, "no, but my name is listed as a user"

BJB [HelpDesk] says, "haven't pounded enough buttons to see a cam or talk yet"

SusanneN [helpdesk] says, "Aha"

SusanneN [helpdesk] asks, "Do you see a chat window?"

BJB [HelpDesk] Nods

SusanneN [helpdesk] says, "Yoiu did something right again"

SusanneN [helpdesk] says, "I can see your window now."

BJB [HelpDesk] exclaims, "I have your cam!"

SusanneN [helpdesk] says, "I have to rearrange my dxesktop"

SusanneN [helpdesk] says, "I've closed down Yahoo"

BJB [HelpDesk] Nods

SusanneN [helpdesk] says, "I am afraid of running out of memory"

SusanneN [helpdesk] says, "I still do not see your name in the Directory list"

BJB [HelpDesk] says, "try REFRESH DISPLAY"

BJB . o O ( green rounded arrow )

SusanneN [helpdesk] exclaims, "Yes!"

SusanneN [helpdesk] says, "So that's what that icon does"

BJB [HelpDesk] says, "but the chat doesn't appear to be working."

VanceS [Webhead] says, "having to download new ivisit"

BJB [HelpDesk] nods..I had to do that too

SusanneN [helpdesk] says, "Hey,your voice is very clear this time, BJ"

BJB [HelpDesk] says, "I think it has something to do with the microphone gain"

BJB [HelpDesk] says, "I reduced it by pressing on the - button next to the mic"

SusanneN [helpdesk] says, "I don't see any minus next to the microphone"

BJB [HelpDesk] says, "I have a blank video screen open that has that feature"

BJB . o O ( maybe if you click on the mic icon under your cam pic? )

BJB . o O ( we probably see different screens )

SusanneN [helpdesk] says, "Well, underneath my webcam window, I see the icon bar with the Talk button, a sound and microphone sound bar (with icons), and when I click on either sound or mic icon, they turn red - that's all"

BJB [HelpDesk] says, "maybe that is a mac/pc difference. I see a + and a - next to both the mic and the speaker"

SusanneN [helpdesk] says, "Interesting to know that. Maybe those features are non existing in mac versions."

BJB [HelpDesk] Nods...makes helpdesk work a little more difficult ;-)

SusanneN [helpdesk] says, "I'll take a short break and get back before we start at noon GMT :-)"

BJB [HelpDesk] says, "Nice bit of software though...and it is mac/pc compatible"

BJB [HelpDesk] nods and waits till the witching hour
