Folks,

Most of the time, we tend to forget the Board Chat exists, which means few of us use it. I've experimented with adding a very small chat window at the bottom of the main Board Index. Please tell me what you think of this.

I like it but usually go straight to "view active topics" so would probably miss it. Need a chat alert.

Great idea but I didn't even notice it. Maybe at the top of the list instead of the bottom. Otherwise, like Mary, I just go to Active Topics.

There's a chat function?!? I just go to active topics too, so never knew it was there.

Carey,

Yeah, you see "Cook's Chat" link in the top menu?

Oh yeah. There it is! Clearly I am not maximizing my use of your awesome board. I blame CK.

I never use the main page. I go straight to new posts.

I, too, just go straight to new posts or active topics. Maybe it could be on one of those pages?

Well, Active Topics would be good. That's not a feature of the minichat tool though; I'd have to figure out how to hack it, which would likely take quite a while.
