Chat for the Screening?

[Ben Sliker]

Howdy everyone.

For all of us watching the stream at home, I was thinking we could set up a chat instead of just a thread. As cool as the thread was last year, it was kind of annoying trying to follow everything when everyone was posting at the same time, and you'd miss 5-6 posts as you were writing yours. And you all know how much I love AIMing when watching fest movies.

If you are interested, PM me your email address and I'll send you an invite for one of those online chats anyone can join ~1/2 hour before the screening starts.

nm ... Larry is hooking us up with a chat to go along with the stream. Thanks Larry!

(a few more people have been sending me emails, just in case, feel free to continue to do so.)

you'll archive it and post it later won't you?

 

[Ben Sliker]

absolutely.

[Ben Sliker]

i'm going to have to store up a bank of funny phrases for tomorrow night ...

Nike Dunks,
Call your BO,
On the phone,
Here we go.

 

[Ben Sliker]

well, it's just you, me and tim for the moment. it'll actually be like an AIM session if no one else gets me an address...

 

[Edgen]

Is there another public website that we could start a chat? I know i've seen them out there, but never had a real reason to use it until now. I'm gonna try and make the livecast and chat tonight too.

[Ben Sliker]

justin, i'll send you an invite too. I use chatzy when i can't get an AIM or iChat room to work with everyone.

 

[Jason Ramsey]

sure. with the site issues lately, might be a good idea anyways.

We'll have an official thread, and you guys can work something out, if we dont' get something set up first... and then just post it in the screening thread or something.

I'll see if we can't get some kind of official chat page set up or something though, over on dvxfest.

later,
Jason

I also believe the video streaming has chat also, I will have to see if it can be archived though.

 

[Ben Sliker]

cool ... will standby with a secondary option if nothing else works out. Thanks!

 

[Larry Rutledge]

Yes. The stream has chat and it can be archived. I'll make sure it is activated

 

[Ben Sliker]

Thanks Larry!

 

[Brandon Rice]

I'll be posting pictures on my facebook during the evening... and try to shoot links over here on User as well.

 

[Zim]

Good idea Brandon

Ben I sent you a email address anyway, just incase.

Hi Ben,

I love your idea of the live chat, but unfortunately I am not able to write that fast in English. I also love the idea to watch the screening live this night/morning, but I can't guarantee it, because for us here in Berlin it will start at 5 am and probably we will sleep.

All the best

Susanne

The night will be recorded and will be available for playback at a later date.
