Introduction To Chat

On the Internet, chatting is talking to other people who are using the Internet at the same time you are. Usually, this "talking" is the exchange of typed-in messages requiring one site as the repository for the messages (or "chat site") and a group of users who take part from anywhere on the Internet. In some cases, a private chat can be arranged between two parties who meet initially in a group chat. Chats can be ongoing or scheduled for a particular time and duration. Most chats are focused on a particular topic of interest and some involve guest experts or famous people who "talk" to anyone joining the chat. Chatting is one of the popular features of the internet. Two types of chat are Text Based and Multimedia.Text based chat is the oldest and most popular type of chat on the internet.You can have conversations with one or more people. When chatting, the text you type immediately appears on the screen of ech person participating in the conversation.For multimedia chat allows you to have voice conversations and communicate through live video over the internet. Since sound and video transfer slowly over the internet, u should have a high speed connection to the internet to use multimedia chat.The example for chatting in the internet are yahoo messenger,email,facebook,my space and others.
