I think a chat room would be a nice idea. It's not hard to do. It can be
done on IRC, Internet Relay Chat. First it require an IRC program, which
can be found and possibly free. Someone logs onto a server (there are many
to pick from, Rootsweb may allow it, they have a genealogy room now) then
creates a room. I think this is as easy as connecting to a room by typing
in a name, then anyone else just goes thru the same process and joins the
room.
The problem I see is that it requires people to be online at the same time.
That may be difficult. It's hard enough to get people to submit things to
the list sometimes. I'm all for it, maybe if someone attempts it the
schedule could be posted to this list.
