Several members of other forums and sites I visit are starting to utilize gabbly for chat on that particular site.

For those that aren't familiar, Gabbly is basically a chat window that opens up and connects all gabbly users on a specific website.

You can either go to http://www.gabbly.com or you an just type http://gabbly.com/ then the url of the site you want to chat with other people on.

For FR it would be http://gabbly.com/freerepublic.com

Then you can surf around FR and chat with other FReepers who are surfing FR as well. Well.... if other FReepers started using it. I just checked and didn't see any one on. :(

The cool thing is, each page can have it’s own gabbly room. So if this became popular on FR, we wouldn’t all have to clutter one room. Every separate page and thread could have it’s own room even.

Like the most recent breaking news thread.

This is cool! Thanks! Signing up.

It is isn’t it? Good for people to know about—especially when FR goes down

I find FR pretty engaging. If we live chat I may be in information overload.

Did a test and it works with Safari.

[Clara Lou]

Yeah—too much going on.

[Clara Lou]

Now, that is a good thing. I wondered how that would work.

[Vision]

Just my style...others may love it.

[Texaggie79]

I personally doubt I will be on it much, but I posted it because I know many FReepers who would enjoy such a thing.

It just crashed FF on my laptop.

I pass.

Does this solve the problem of ex-pat FReepers’ ability to chat with resident FReepers?

Like Hatfield and McCoy non-combatants having a cup of coffee and apolitical conversation?

That would be nice;)

If you have Firefox, you need to add on the sidebar extension afterwards, on the main gabbly website. Only then can you refresh and hop from page to page, article to article, and the sidebar/chat remains. Works very well.

[mom4kittys]

It will!

Thanks for the ping. I’m not sure ‘chat’ would appeal to me. What’s the difference from talking here or in FReepmail?

Fun for live threads and the “chatty” threads. Also when FR is down.
