Me and Jeff have been using Yahoo messenger and the webcam format on it is a ton easier then Netmeeting.......How many of you guys out there are using yahoo (or can use yahoo) and have webcams??
The good thing is you can create a room everybody can talk at once and everybody can view everybodys webcams if they want....
What about maybe setting up a chat once a week or so for all the martial talkers or kenpoist and maybe trade some ideas or concepts on webcam?? Would be kind cool to have a real time chat with all of us sometime.
Whatcha think???
P.S.
My yahoo ID is bambamhunter feel free to add me
I'm elpasote. Sounds like fun to me!

Tunetigress and myself have chatted via webcam on yahoo.
I've also used the webcam on netmeeting, to chat with other people, not sure which one I prefer.
Netmeeting has that neet "whiteboard" option where you can play tic tac toe with the person you are chatting with. ;)

Yahoo has a neat little Karate game that you play with rock, paper, scissors. It is cool.

I have wanted to experiment with this for some time, but I don't have a webcam. I'll see if I can get one out of my next Legal Plan Commission... hint, hint. Man I thought I would have had more response from here, but you never know.
Are these nicknames you guys are using from Yahoo Messenger and/or Netmeeting? I guess I may also need an account and maybe even someone to show me how this works...
You can demonstrate techniques this way right? Can you see what the other person is doing or is it primarily for "talking heads" like on The Jetsons?
:rofl:

Sometimes you get lag and that can get very annoying!! But depending on how you set up your camera you can catch full body movement.

Basically here is how a room would work..........
Someone creates a yahoo chatroom
calls it "kenpo meeting"
invites whoever wants to participate
people can talk hands free on mic in the room
people can turn on their webcams and decide who can and cant see
but the cool thing is that everyone can talk in the room on mic....
you can view whoevers webcams you need to (i.e. whos demonstrating)
no mic? no cam? no prob you can still type in the room real time
and its in real time
SO GO GET A YAHOO ID DOUG!!!!!!

This sounds like a real good way to communicate. My question is if your doing this in central time will it still be 9 my time. I didn't know if this was a part of the country that still did the time change thing :mad: .

Last night me and KenpoJoe set up a room and worked some of the features....we can actually talk inside the room any and all (all you need is a mic) and used the webcam feature on it (what I like is you can view multiple cams)
Needless to say, Joe is FUUULLLL of info (his experience is amazing) and a great guy! I had alot of fun!

Aside from the post about Mr. Hunter and Mr. Reblo, I am curious if there has been any success with getting a group together.
I did not look online last night, but I am curious if anyone showed up, and if it had any type of success??
Sincerly,
JD

I went to class last night. A friend of mine is leaving for 6months and he was supposed to be in class last night... he wasn't. Let me know when you do this again.
Monday, Wed, Fri and Sat nights are best for me.

Well it was okay...me, joe, and jason. Yahoo didnt really cooperate some of us did keep freezing but the webcam and voice didnt work too bad. Id like to try it again with more people!
jfarnsworth
11-09-2002, 11:02 AM
yes, more people next time. It was a fun time.
I still think it's a great idea. My wife was in the hospital, and my
kid was sick, so I couldn't make it this time.

Well my wife thinks I belong in a hospital (mental) and my kids are sick of me? Does that count???
Hope it gets better Kirk....try next Weds at 7pm central anyone??? Hows that work for you Jason?? Even if we dont get too incredibly technical it is nice to socialize with different Kenpoist

He is all sensitive and stuff. It is a good test of my control, which i have found i am lacking due to the fact that there were several times where i hit him and stopped him in his tracks. And this was all before he got the tooth pulled.
