Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - Groot - 2010-06-19

I'll be out then, so I won't make it, but good luck! One question for the future: can we participate by voice only?


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - ocircle - 2010-06-19

Of course. You don't need a webcam to participate -- just a mic Wink
But a webcam is nice!

Maybe we can find out what Nest0r looks like.

Keep on dreaming Smile He didn't even tell us where his nickname comes from...

I thought he was just a forum bot...

Wow! You guys STILL think nest0r is a guy?

I have an... uh... revealing photo of nest0r. Apparently he/she's got both parts. You didn't hear that from me though. Wink

Two girls in chat now!


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - ocircle - 2010-06-19

That was great tonight Big Grin

I am so glad to be able to chat. I haven't had a conversation in a long time. Smile


Here's to hoping for a more spectacular next week!

Two girls, one chat?

Sorry, once that's seen it can't be unseen.

Indeed.

Hey all,
You are welcome to engage in video chat this weekend at 9PM EST on a Saturday at
http://www.tokbox.com/?targetConf=lqn408ypbufkp9jt
(it looks like zorap adopted a plug in that requires people to install something)

but I'm going to be camping this Saturday, so I will probably not be in chat. :3 I hope many of you join up and practice your Japanese / help each other out.


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - dhalprin - 2010-07-01

Hi all. I am a long time lurker to the forum and still in the beginning stages of RTK. I just wanted to let you know that tinychat.com offers a videochat/chat room experience as well that might work and it doesn't require a plugin to my knowledge.
I would love to see this develop further so that when I get decent with conversation, I could join in!
Good luck!


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - quincy - 2010-07-02

I'm willing to join in this Saturday (21 EST) if you do it again


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - ocircle - 2010-07-03

Hey all, let's video chat tonight!

http://www.zorap.com/wyahfqg
Start: 9PM EST, Saturday, 7/3! Until 10PM (or later)

In as much Japanese as you know!



* I looked into tokbox, tinychat, and zorap, and although zorap requires a plug in, it seems to be the most friendly to Japanese text. Tokbox won't allow any Japanese at all, tinychat allows some, but it's very hesitant (Japanese text input floats around and goes through whenever you press entre.. except you need to press enter sometimes to fix mistakes/change kanji -_-).

Zorap requires a plug in, and the Japanese text is small, but it seems to be the kindest to Japanese text. Please go to Zorap before the chat starts to obtain the plug-in / complain here if the plug in won't work. If you are using firefox, it will require you to restart your firefox to work!

Too bad, that's 4AM in Sweden Smile


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - Blahah - 2010-07-03

Yeah that's 2AM in the UK, a bit too late for me. Don't mind too much as I'd only embarrass myself at the moment.


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - ocircle - 2010-07-03

I see. Thank for for the feedback and interest. Maybe next time we can try to have this chat at a time more friendly to the European side of the globe, like 3PM EST.


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - ocircle - 2010-07-08

Before you know it, another week has gone by!
It's time for Japanese Conversation Video Chat!

Let us try out tinychat (even if it's a little clunky with handling Japanese text)

http://tinychat.com/speak_japanese
This chat will begin at 3PM EST on Saturday, July 10th!



All you need is a mic to participate Smile
but showing your face is welcome too!


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - dhalprin - 2010-07-10

How did tinychat work out for you all? I am keeping an eye on this thread because I was be starting up classes in another month and I will want to practice on all of you. Until then, I am trying to focus on RtK!


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - ocircle - 2010-07-11

Turn out was the worst last week lol (0! participants, other than myself)

I'm starting to think that no one is interested in chatting, even if they can use voice only. Sad


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - Nukemarine - 2010-07-11

I have to wait till I'm settled in my new apartment and get internet there. After that, I'll pop on by assuming it's not completely a bad time difference with Japan.


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - Tobberoth - 2010-07-12

Sorry that I didn't show up when you actually chose I time I could participate on (3PM EST is 10PM ECT) but I didn't even see it and I had people over.

Next time you pick a time like that, if I see it in time and I'm not busy, I'll join.

Idea is great but your target audience is just not here. Geeks have problems talking to women and doing it in a foreign language scares the living s@$t out of them Smile


Let's Video Chat (9PM EST, 5/5) - skinnyneo - 2010-07-12

This sounds kinda cool! When is the next one?
