MONTANA CHAT ROOM

| MSGS Chat Room | Java/HTML Chat Rooms | IRC Chat Rooms |

We have a registered chat room! What does this mean? We can have board meetings, topic-oriented discussions or just visit and talk genealogy online. Practice meetings will be coming this fall and will be announced on Montana-L. Hope to see you there.

Check out the MSGS Chat Room FAQ (frequently asked questions). It covers basic definitions, chat etiquette, and has links to sites with more detailed information.

MSGS Chat Room

There are two ways to get to #MSGS (our chat room's name):

    To use this link you must have your browser "Java Enabled." Once you are sure your browser is set up to work with Java, just click on the link below. (If your browser doesn't have java capabilites, you can use the IRC method).

Java or HTML Chat Rooms

Visit these chat rooms and give Java Chat a try. Be sure to check out their web page for any planned scheduled events. Don't be discouraged if no one is in there when you stop by. Often there are specific times that the chat room "regulars" are in the room. "If at first you don't succeed, try try again." Have Fun!

IRC Chat Rooms

Visit these chat rooms and give IRC a try. The links below are to the specific chat rooms' web pages. They will give you the access information and will often have scheduled events listed. Again, don't get discouraged if there aren't many people there the first time you visit. Just try stopping by on a different day and/or time. Enjoy!
