RECOMMENDATION

We highly recommend you create a Meebo account for the chat.  Why?  It will help you keep track of who is in the room.  If everyone is ‘guest123′ or ‘guest789′ it can get a little confusing.  And perhaps more importantly, it will be easier for you to keep in touch with other GHC participants post conference since you will be able to add one another to your friend’s lists.

CHAT ROOM RULES

Our GHC chat room is moderated under a “common sense, common courtesy” guideline.  We ask that you:

  • Do not use vulgar language.
  • Do not flood the room.  Give others an opportunity to respond to your thoughts.

A volunteer moderator will be in the chat room during select times during the conference.  If you have a concern, she will be available to address your situation.
