Talking is the primary means of communication in this Community. A microphone, or a microphone headset is highly recommended. This equipment can be obtained for $20 to $80 from sellers such as
Buy.com
or Tiger Direct
Many people find that microphones and microphone headsets with 1/8-inch connectors that plug directly into the soundcard or jacks provided on the computer work better than usb connections.

To participate in the Community, you will need to install a small piece of software onto your computer. The installation is simple. After you log into the Community for the first time, you choose the link first-time users click here to download the plug-in. Either run the program or save the program to a place of your choosing on your hard drive and install it.

When you create your user name during the membership registration process, we require you to use your first name, first and last name, or the name by which you are commonly known rather than a pseudonym screen name which is often funny, silly or may have other descriptive characteristics. In this Community, real people are communicating with real people. If your name is already taken, you may want to place numbers after your name, for example, tim1 or tim355, to obtain a user name that is available.
