The only messenger I can find on my computer says Windows Messenger so I didn't know where all of you go, or if it was the same thing.

I'll see if my husband can help me out with Yahoo IM, if that's where you guys are going to discuss the book, that way I can join in.

You have MSN, which is certainly not the most popular of messingers. Most of us use with Yahoo IM or AIM and I use Google Talk quite a bit.

Go to: http://messenger.yahoo.com/ to download a copy, It is free and useful for chatting off of the boards.

Can you conference on YM?

Yes, YM is pretty easy to conference on. Although I dislike conferencing. It gets too scattered.

Yes

What? You didn't like my answer with commentary?

Well, if you'd stop posting at the same time as me...

Get out of my brain. :p

I'm on YIM, but is there a problem with a thread right here on the message board?

No, we'll definitely have a thread. I personally enjoy conferences, so if anyone else has an interest in discussing the book that way as well as a thread, well that's great. I love the conversational style of a conference. I think things get discussed that way that probably wouldn't in a thread. It doesn't need to be either/or. It can be both. If some want to participate, great, if not, ok.
