A New Chatroom from XOOM.com
The UserName you choose cannot have spaces.
Give the java applet plenty of time to load...it takes a while.
All you need is a user name (ignore the rest) then click OK, CONNECT !
If you should be asked
for a password, simply click LOGIN again
to return to previous screen...then enter a slightly different username.
You are only being asked for a password because the screen name you've
chosen is already taken. Just vary it slightly...add a couple numbers
to it, etc., and login again....as soon as you hit upon a name that isn't
already taken, it should work.
Type your message in the
narrow slot at the bottom of the page, then
simply hit your "ENTER" key to send the message to the main screen.
You may use the room as soon as it loads (with it's default
settings)
However, for a fully customized room, when the applet loads (below)
you will see a FAQ button. By clicking on it, then on "user commands"
you will find instructions on how to enlarge the font, how to chat privately
with someone else in the room, how to change the text and background colors,
etc. Room is loading below...
