Let's hear it. Do we already have too many community chat rooms we don't utilize enough as it is? Do we have room for one more? Should it be private or public? Would anyone actually use it?
Stickam
It's sort of like Ventrillo except you can use web cams for a video feed as well. Usually someone registers a room and then people can join in and chat. You can set rooms to public or private which requires a password before they can join. It also features text chat as well. The only downside is that there are only twelve (I think) slots for people to use web cams, the rest can only use text.
Why, we have IRC if we want to chat amongst ourselves ???
I guess it would just be another option for people who might want to chat using web cams.
I'd be up for it, I guess.
IRC is perfect because it needs less attention so it's better for multitasking...
Meh, I'm not against it, but I'd never use it if there was one.
I am for because I am not ugly
Too bad it'll be a sausage fest. :<
I could steal Spore's MacBook for this. =]

I'll show you mine if you show me yours.
I'm going to say there is no need for it. It's a cool idea, but I think irc is sufficient. Doesn't require a camera, speakers, or nearly as much attention/focus as stickam or even vent does.
Mind you, if people want to hang out on Stickam at specific times I'd say go for it, but I'm pretty sure there won't be much sustained interest.
I doubt even budr could maintain stickam at work.Â

I don't believe in webcams, at work or otherwise. The temptation to start waving mini-Budr around has always proven to be too great to resist.
I hate stickam; it always ends up being about tits somehow.

I think skype could work just as well. Thoughts?

We already have a vent server, wut would be the point of that?
Also I don't have a webcam, so I've no interest in Stickam.
