So ... there's a wonderful little program called "Paltalk" which allows you to voice and video chat and is free for folks to download and use.
http://www.paltalk.com/PalTalkSite/index.html
Everyone grab it, set up a microphone and/or a webcam, and add Fishpaw to your buddy list. I've set up a group called NationStates and will be there off an on for a while.
So if you want to be annoyed by my Cajun accent, come on in.

But then people might see that I'm actually a 45 year old black man logging on from prison in Dubai!

Hmm...I was planning to go shopping this weekend, so I might get a microphone if I can find a cheap one.

But the mic's on. :D

I used to use Paltalk a lot, but the culture of hatred and racism that is perpetuated by many in the Social Issues category is really depressing. That and after countless attempts by countless people to highlight these ToS breaches to PalTalk staff falling on deaf ears, I really lost faith in the program and the people who run it. The typed transcripts I have from some of those rooms would make you sick. :mad:

pretty much same here, except i see getting dressed as 'starting the day' for some reason. once i get dressed i ought to get on with things (man i hate things so much :mad: ) so i stay in me PJs for as long as i can :D
that said i have to leave it half an hour after i get out of the shower, before getting dressed, to let my hair dry (well, before the haircut i did, now its just habbit :p ). u probably have to wait a whole load longer!
I'd do it, except i'd scare people with my accent. :p
