* For tomorrow's chat only, we are experimenting with different chat
software:
PloneChat, a brower-based chat program hosted at the Center for Literary
Computing. This program is less robust than jabber but does not require
you to
download a client and will not be blocked by firewalls that block
instant
messaging clients. 

* The url for the chat is here: 
http://clc.as.wvu.edu:8080/clc/projects/leonardo. We will return to the
regular
system - using jabber - for upcoming chats (see the schedule below).

* You need a username and password to access the chat. Email
charles.baldwin@mail.wvu.edu with the subject line "strickland chat" to
receive
a username and password.

* Also, please note the dates and times for the next two chats (using
the
jabber chat program):
