So you see the live tab on your skype for mac osx? Or the skypecast? Because I looked all over the place on skype and could only see a conference call not a skypecast or a live bar.
Nah, this is something where you would have to go to Skype’s website. Try http://skypecasts.skype.com/. For Mac folks like us that is the starting point, I think.
So do we have a finalized time for this endevour?
I am pretty mac savvy and I am pretty sure with this version you can’t join or even host a skypecast. If you checkout that website you linked and try to join a skypecast or host it it tells you that you need version 3.2 or later and the newest version they have out for mac is 2.7 so you cannot join in without a windows version. Kinda sucky for someone who doesn’t want to partition their drive and doesn’t have a Windows based pc. (I will be fine because I have a PC I can get set up on but I just want to point this issue out for people who wont be) Really sorry if I am getting annoying.
11 AM Eastern Daylight Time? How this plays out in the west can be seen at http://timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?month=4&day=5&year=2008&hour=11&min=0&sec=0&p1=422. I believe Emily may be hosting this shindig so sticking with that time makes it hopefully easier.
Yeah I looked it up through their help forum and they still haven’t fixed the skypecast for mac osx so you can’t use it until they do. Sorry for all the posts. Just thought I would put that out there though so that people will be prepared if they have a mac.
And the name of the SkypeCast will be…?
Wow, very disapointed. I use macs exclusively. Guess I will just have to keep up on the forum.
wait wait wait 24 people can fit into a skpe cnference call. Would that be easior?
You’d have to ask me to be on my buddy list, but would that be easior do you think? (skype name is emilyfromohio)
Well, you’ve got me on the list. For those without Skype you would just need telephone numbers. That is, of course, presuming you have Skype Credit on-hand.
if you have skypeout Astro,
Yeah, I do. There is a SkypeIn number too. That number is 702-425-8547.
I think I’ll send individual pms to people who have expressed interest in the meetup to ask to add me to their buddy list, because I think the skype conference is really the best way to include everyone
Plus, it can be moderated better. You can moderate a skypecast but in a conference, what do you have to moderate?
Hey, I really hope Audra, Sean, and Chuck don’t mind but in case anyone has a phone, and wants to come on to the meeting, I set up a talkshoe account because astro herder has skype out

Yah, I need to remember a quote from Tigh, with a slight addition.
Tigh: You know how to never get a [caffine] hangover?
Starbuck: No
Tigh: You don’t stop drinking.
