Date for your Filofax - Sunday 8 July 2012





New York



Sao Paulo



London



Paris



We are going to run another conference round-table voice chat using Skype.

I'm sure we are gradually getting to know each other's voices, but I will make a point of going 'around the table' to get everyone to introduce themselves this time.

So...When, Where, What, Who and How?

When? - Sunday 8 July from 10am (US East Coast time), 4pm London time, 5 pm Paris time etc.  See the clocks at the top of this post to see roughly what time you should be on line.

Where? - an on-line chat using Skype.

What do I need? - just a micro-phone and some head phones(in ear phones work fine) and a free Skype account. Using headphones reduces 'echo' on the call.

Who - All of you... connect up with Philofaxy and we will attempt to get as many of us linked in to the audio conference as possible.

How -
  1. Connect to Philofaxy by firstly searching for Philofaxy in Skype, I will then add you as a contact.
  2. Then  'Start Chat',  I will then add you in to the chat room. 
  3. Then if you request it, I can add you to the audio conference as well. But if you just want to chat via keyboard that's fine. That way it's slightly less hectic for me! 
Come and join in the fun, even if you only pop in to say hello...

As with previous round-tables there will also be a parallel text chat room going at the same time as the voice conference.

If you need any assistance setting up Skype, please pop a comment in this post and I will try and help you get one line. Skype is free for computer to computer calls....

Here is my post on how to improve your Skype audio with headphones or a headset.

Hope to be chatting with you on Sunday 8 July 2012.

  3. Me, too! Since I don't have choir in the summer, I can attend the round table without interfering with church!

  5. Chances are very slim that I will be able to attend this one. My niece is staying with us for a few days, and she'll get picked up Sunday. But I wrote it in my Filofax nonetheless - just in case.

  6. I'm running my internet connection on a dongle right now, and the connection cuts in and out frequently so I won't be able to chat but I'll be able to text. So glad to be back in a timezone where I can be on at the same time as everyone else!
