NEW FEATURE: Join the Mahalo Chat room! ( Top members only. :-)

Since someone just asked about chatting with other members I thought I would let everyone know that many of us hang out in #Mahalo on Freenote.net

You can use the free web chat site Mibbit:

Tip for best answer: M$1.00
Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

I like the chatroom. It's pretty cool to actually talk to you guys, rather than posting one after another.

Wait a minute here. CJD, a green belt, asks for a chat room and within minutes he get's a chat room.

I've been asking for several things, especially a Wii, but also things like emoticons and sending tips to charity. What do I get?

Nothing. Not a Thing.

When did I become the red-headed stepchild of Mahalo Answers?

Anyone know the email for the CEO of Yahoo! Answers? Perhaps I can get him to woo me over to the dark side with the promise of a Wii.

;-)

If you received more tips you could buy yourself a Wii :)

Don't forget about the Kiva Group. It works well for Mahalo Tip contributions because they accept PayPal: http://www.kiva.org/community/viewTeam?team_id=5048

I can't wait to receive my payout this month so that I can make another contribution.

I really like your ideas...I might put them forward. Especially the idea of sending tips to charity and being able to put emotions in your answers and questions.

Darcy...becoming Mahalo's archenemy now? Lol! You'll definitely get a Wii with all the effort and money you are making...sooner or later you will have bought a TV, Sofa and Wii from Mahalo Answers...maybe even a car or house!

The fact that you get to help people is joy enough to keep me here, and when I get some money from a question I answered a few days before, it also puts a smile on my face. :-)

good luck with the Wii

@cjd I'm starting to lean that way. Mahalo Answers has caused me a lot of aggravation over the past few days.

Are there any plans to add an internal chat to Mahalo answers? If so I would recommend setting it up in the same fashion as the Gmail chat and other email chat programs that do not require an additional page opened. The will ensure that Mahalo does not hit many blue code proxies that block an entire website as being solely a chat site.

I look forward to it. In the meantime maybe just a message board to post a comment to an individual member? For instance I just thought of a question or comment you posted a week or so ago about tracking the number of new members someone brings to Mahalo... I was talking to my wife about it and saw her pop up in the welcome new members list. That made me think of the profiles pages. Maybe adding a box in there to say where you heard about Mahalo or what member you heard about it from...

At some point we'll add chat rooms by channel/belt level or something... for now we need to get Facebook, iPhone and site features done. this is #497 on the list. :-)

Hi sryanmi,

You can post a question to a individual member. Instead, this question could be "Hi" - and the person can reply to that. You can set it to private if you want no-one to see.
