― RoxyMuzak© (roxymuzak), Friday, 10 March 2006 17:39 (nineteen years ago)

and then gave up after 5 mins!

― ken c (ken c), Friday, 10 March 2006 17:39 (nineteen years ago)

i'm coming back!

― RoxyMuzak© (roxymuzak), Friday, 10 March 2006 17:40 (nineteen years ago)

I dont have the gmail chat for some reason.

― Last Of The Famous International Pfunkboys (Kerr), Friday, 10 March 2006 17:48 (nineteen years ago)

do you have gmail? and a web browser?

― ken c (ken c), Friday, 10 March 2006 17:48 (nineteen years ago)

I agree that gmail chat is NICE AND EASY. NO FUSS! But then you have to leave an extra internet browser open. ONCE, recently, I had the gmail chat open, aim, AND MSN on!! THE FUTURE.

― gunther heartymeal (keckles), Friday, 10 March 2006 17:48 (nineteen years ago)

i don't like that when you close the main gmail window, it closes everything wihtout warning.

or rather, it warns you "dude you're about to close everything", with an OK button and no option to do anything else about it!!!!

you could just use google talk. you can still talk to gmail chatters.

― sunny successor (katharine), Friday, 10 March 2006 17:52 (nineteen years ago)

― ken c (ken c), Friday, 10 March 2006 17:53 (nineteen years ago)

pressing esc does the same thing :(

― ken c (ken c), Friday, 10 March 2006 17:53 (nineteen years ago)

do you have gmail? and a web browser?
Does it only work on IE? Nothing is showing on firefox.

― Last Of The Famous International Pfunkboys (Kerr), Friday, 10 March 2006 17:55 (nineteen years ago)

dunno, what about your contacts list? on the left

― ken c (ken c), Friday, 10 March 2006 17:56 (nineteen years ago)

It's not there on the left. A friend asked me about this several weeks ago and he even sent me a screenshot of where the list should be.
I dont have it.

Oh well.

― Last Of The Famous International Pfunkboys (Kerr), Friday, 10 March 2006 18:00 (nineteen years ago)

well you dont HAVE to read them -- but what if you have a SUPER IMPORTANT conversation one day about LOST JEWELS or something and you need to refer back to it??

― gunther heartymeal (keckles), Friday, 10 March 2006 18:30 (nineteen years ago)

You can also designate a chat as being OFF THE RECORD -- and then it won't save.

― jaymc (jaymc), Friday, 10 March 2006 18:30 (nineteen years ago)

-- jaymc (jmcunnin...) (webmail), Today 12:30 PM. (jaymc) (later)

right, but then the person you're talking to gets notified and can click 'on the record' right away

― sunny successor (katharine), Friday, 10 March 2006 18:47 (nineteen years ago)

I'm confused. I guess I don't know that much!!!! Are there lots of shady business dealings through gmail chat or something? Well next time I have a chat I'm going to TAKE THE MINUTES.

― gunther heartymeal (keckles), Friday, 10 March 2006 18:51 (nineteen years ago)

how does this work?

― Fritz Wollner (Fritz), Friday, 10 March 2006 19:20 (nineteen years ago)

If you're used to msn you're prolly confused by the fact it's not crashing every 5 minutes. This is normal.

It seems to have a certain, shall we say, Masonic vibe that would do my head in.

― I'm thinking six, six, six (noodle vague), Monday, 13 March 2006 17:21 (nineteen years ago)

maybe I'd better deindex this thread, eh?

― Pashmina (Pashmina), Monday, 13 March 2006 17:24 (nineteen years ago)

― Nathalie (stevie nixed), Tuesday, 14 March 2006 14:04 (nineteen years ago)

they need to make it so that you can set it to pop up a window automatically

― ken c (ken c), Tuesday, 14 March 2006 15:03 (nineteen years ago)

emilysue@gmail.com still in case you aint readin the thread all th way thruuu

if you aren't seeing the chat options, it's likely due to your "language" settings. try setting it to english-US, and it will probably be there.

― kyle (akmonday), Tuesday, 14 March 2006 15:16 (nineteen years ago)
