The Chat!
Today, we have just two people on the chat. I thought there would be more,
but no-one else turned up. Me and Sam Brooks is all you're going to get
tonight. Bear in mind this is the first ever talk of this nature so you
have to excuse the fact that the bloody chat room we used was sh... crap :).
Ah, and I didn't mean to call Amiga Format 'Bloody Idiots'. :)
Here's who's chatting and their aliases:
Trogladite - That's me! Neil, The Editor! Yes, you know the one :)
Ami Gerbil - Sam Brooks. Both of us using a cacky PC :(
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Trogladite: Right. Sorry about the delay. I was replying to your Email
(still haven't finished).
ami-gerbil: i almost logged off
ami-gerbil: whats this all about then
Trogladite: just general chat. You've seen Nick Anderson's work on AF?
ami-gerbil: hello?
ami-gerbil: yep - my web site is full of nicks stuff
Trogladite: hi. Nick Anderson? remember?
Trogladite: Argh! This is slow!
ami-gerbil: my humour section (200 pages) is just from nick!
Trogladite: Right. Nick anderson has Conference type things in his Diskmag.
I thought I might try it.
ami-gerbil: I hate though bloody banners at the top
ami-gerbil: cool - how you recording it
ami-gerbil: cut`n`paste
Trogladite: I'm recording it using cut'n'paste. yep
Trogladite: Trouble is, the text is scrolling off the top!
ami-gerbil: OK
ami-gerbil: Glad you liked my articles
Trogladite: Yes, they were good.
ami-gerbil: your right this is too slow
Trogladite: Just a quick word, I'm going to have to keep going to Notepad
and copying text from here to it.
ami-gerbil: ok- that won`t matter much, its slow any way
ami-gerbil: a few second ain`t gonna make ant difference
Trogladite: Did you miss me. Internet Explorer just bloody crashed!
ami-gerbil: is Antoni gonna join?
ami-gerbil: I get that a lot too - I got an ad for netscape at top of mypage
now!
Trogladite: He can't. He's not here. He doesn't live here and there's only
one compuer on the net.
Trogladite: My banner's disappeared :) weird.
Trogladite: Hey, sam, are you on ICQ?
ami-gerbil: ICQ? whats that?
Trogladite: ICQ, you get a number and you can have decent real time chat
with people. Better than this crap :)
ami-gerbil: Don`t think so
ami-gerbil: No
Trogladite: Go to www.mirabilis.com and download the program (PC only)
Trogladite: It lets you keep track of people you know and if they are
online or not. It's cool.
ami-gerbil: my Amiga ain`t on the net I have to use a PC - PC only don`t
matter
Trogladite: My ICQ number is 27873010. Just type it in your contact list
when you get ICQ.
ami-gerbil: you mean a pager thing?
Trogladite: Then you can see when I'm online and instantly contact me!
Trogladite: Something like a pager type thing. Yes, I'd recommend it.
Trogladite: You'll be receiving an Email from me soon, by the way.
ami-gerbil: by the way, have you done a review of Simon Hitchens (?)

argument, eh? :)
Trogladite: Yes, the speed... er, speed... what speed? :)
ami-gerbil: we type something and it end up after something else
Trogladite: It's not what can be described as fast.
ami-gerbil: speed of this IRC
ami-gerbil: see what I mean about one of my prev staements
Trogladite: Yes. I think we should type something and then wait for the
other person to reply before continuing.
Trogladite: hehe. This is annoying!
ami-gerbil: If you want help with that Blitz thing, why don`t you tell the
readers about it and they can e-mail you
ami-gerbil: tell the readers here that is
Trogladite: Hmm. My Amiga's just crashed behind me. Wonder why :(
ami-gerbil: I`ve gotta go in 10 mins
Trogladite: Oh yes, readers, how do you read input from GTPalette? HELP ME

of time.
