The easiest way to initially access the chat room is through my home page (see below). I am also investigating the use of Powwow, a chat program that is much faster than the rooms and much more user friendly than IRC. It also allows voice contact. Using Powwow you can tour the web as a group, an excellent way to introduce neophytes to the web If anyone elee is also using Powwow please let me know.
