Hey, Shanti (Angel Girl, Reneeb, Max, John, et al.). If you see this, you're here. If not, I'm not sure whether we will be able to manage this.
Cheers,
Later,
Jannbeau

>Hi, rrissa:
This is Jannbeau writing from my home computer as Jannbeau (home-nym)--dumb long name. Maybe I'll try to change it to JANNBEAU2.
At any rate, You could be right.
Would the format be real-time or postings like at PBabble? Isn't PBabble more like a bulletin board? I know very little about this because I never got interested in chatting til I stumbled on PBabble. Can you guide us through the process?BUT--this did work! You found us.
At any rate, I'm willing to try the Yahoo thing if that would work more smoothly.
Cheers,
Jannbeau

There is already a Yahoo chat set up. Go to bottom of page to Psycho-Babble Open. Follow Yahoo's endless instructions. DO NOT use your regular e-mail. Let them set one up for you. Your name, etc. will be displayed for all to see.
Good luck and see you there.

but there is a chat room connected to this Babble series of boards. In the list of things at the bottom of the screen, click on Psycho Babble Open. I know the name sounds obscure...but it is a chat room, through Yahoo! I am not particularly technical, I just followed the instructions. It can sometimes take a while to get the registration from yahoo, but when you are set up, you can go to chat and talk, real time.
a welcoming mouse

Go to
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/psycho-babble-open/
This is the same as the link from the bottom of this page labeled Psycho-Babble-Open.Once there sign in. If you are not a member (of Yahoo) you will be prompted to join. As Dinah said earlie, you can choose to have a Yahoo email address too rather than give Yahoo your home email.
Once you've joined, return to the sign in page and sign in.
Then select chat. You may need to download a program to do this. If anyone is in the chatroom you will see their names in the box labeled chatters along with your own.
Good luck.

Can you not chat on a mac? Am I missing something?
I suppose I shall remain a member of the hated non-pc group until I'm ready to switch over. So I'll only be able to chat at work (when I'm supposed to be working ;-)
Sigh...wish I could join you guys...

OK, here we go:1. Go to PsychoSocial Babble at the top of the PsychoBabble page and click on it.
2. You will be taken to Psychosocialbabble. SCROLL ALL THE WAY to the BOTTOM of the page; look toward the center bottom line. You will see
Psycho Babble Open.3. Click on Psycho Babble Open. This should take you to the yahoo group that belongs with PBabble. It has Dr. Bob's picture on it.
4. If you have never registered as a Yahoo.grp user, follow the directions to register. After registration is complete, return to the open chat room (Dr. Bobs.
5. Choose "Chat" from the menu at the left side of the page
6. The live chat should come on up and you can just start chatting.
I HOPE THIS IS RIGHT. It worked for me. I just came from there.
Cheers and Tears,
JannbeauCome on, y'all. You can do it. Shanti, where are you? Rrissa? I talked with Angel Girl over there briefly tonight. They asked about you, Shanti!
