I couldn't get it to work, then had to leave
Maybe next time!
Maybe next time!
I hope we do it again some time! I'm rather chatty!Originally Posted by jcat
That went well, Anne and Gaye, but I think we need more members who are willing and able to talk.
I had the same trouble when I first started using Skype, and played around with the (Windows XP) microphone controls until I got it working. I don't remember what I did, but there are some instructions for adjusting the mike on the Skype site.Originally Posted by Bella713
It was fun and great to hear the voices of those that talked...for some reason my mic is not working and I did the test call a few days ago and it worked, tried it again a while ago and it wont work
I hope a lot of people (with working headsets) can, too, Tracy. It'll get "old" fast if Gaye has to keep interviewing Anne and the same old mods.Originally Posted by Miss Mew
I can't wait to hear the recorded showI hope I can join in next time
Thats a great idea, there isn't much that we don't know about each others kitties but the more personal stuff is always interesting to hearOriginally Posted by Pami
I like talking personal ......... like the things we found out about you Tricia about you speaking mostly German in your home ...... I thought was really neat ....... about Anne and how she came to start TCS ......... maybe we can have a personal session once a month ..... so it wont be just about cats, but about the ones who love the cats too?
That sounds good to me! Of course, "No comment" or "I have to think about that!" would have to be allowed. I'm still trying to come up with topics. What led you to TCS? How did you become a cat lover? (Sorry. I occasionally get stuck teaching English conversation classes, and insist on suggestions, so that the students can prepare a bit).Originally Posted by Pami

That's a good idea! Then some topics could be announced in advance, but going off on a tangent allowed? And really interesting topics could be stretched over a number of Skypecasts?Originally Posted by icklemiss21
Perhaps we can have a thread (or people can post in this thread) on what future topics should / could be?
I like that ,too ........ it allowed us "non talkers" to participate more.Originally Posted by jcat
I liked having the live chat running parallel to the Skypecast, as it was possible to react to what people were typing (as the comments were positive, not negative).
Me too, about 5 mins after we finished chatting Matt tells me, you can have the headset nowOriginally Posted by Pami
