I don't say this to self promote, but a good friend of mine came up with an idea to SHARE a chatroom among a bunch of different programming sites. Hey - it helps the sharing of information. So if you have a game programming site, and either have or want a chatroom, e-mail GPMega AT perplexed DOT com, and say you want to share the chatroom.... After all, if nobody is in your chatroom, then it's a useless waste of bandwidth if someone does go there.... Thanks, I'll probably post this in 2 other groups too... but this isn't a spam campaign... I've wasted hours of my left getting into these chatrooms - to find I'm the only person there... it just stinks....
