I'm not sure if this is the right board to put this in, so if it needs to be moved, I will be more than happy to have it moved.
I wanted to bring up an idea that I've been thinking about doing recently: group episode viewings of Days of Our Lives. I've done something similar to this with a different show on a different forum. Here's how this would work. There's a website called TinyChat, in which people can IM and/or video chat with other people. It is free. You can also put up content from YouTube on there, and anyone who is in the chat can view the YouTube video. I thought that this was a fairly cool way to watch episodes of a TV series with other people, then after (and sometimes during) the episode, we (whoever is in the chat at the moment) would discuss the episode, and the show in general. This is just an idea. Before I even do one, I'd like to know if there would be any interest. So, I've added a poll at the top of the post. Please, let me know what you think of this idea. If there is some interest, I'd like to experiment with it. We'll set up a date and time if there's some interest.

Hmm...sounds like an interesting idea. I'm not quite sure how it would work but...maybe.

I think it could be fun! It can't hurt to try and see if it works.

I have to say, the idea is very intriguing. But I am not sure how it works with folks viewing it at different times...time zones/work day hours, etc. But would be curious to learn more.
Nice suggestion! |

Well, there seems to be some enthusiasm, so I'd like to try it out tomorrow afternoon (Saturday) starting around 2 p.m. Central time. That's:
3 p.m. Eastern
1 p.m. Mountain
12 noon Pacific
Around that time, I'll post a link to a TinyChat room in this thread. If you're interested, all you need to do is sign in (either via Facebook, Twitter, or as a guest) and create a username. Then, we can start chatting. I cannot say how long it will go on for, that all depends on the amount of people participating. We can watch anything Days related (whether current or old) as long as it's on YouTube. Hope you guys can participate!

Okay, guys. The first official Days of Our Lives group viewing has officially begun. Not sure how long it's going to go on, that depends on the amount of participation. We can watch anything Days related, whether it's current episodes or old clips, so feel free to suggest anything. If you have any problems figuring things out, I will be on here, so please feel free to PM me with questions, or post them in this tread. Please follow the link to join in: tinychat.com/fjlbun |

I like the venue André DiMera. It's like the webcast feature we use at work so it feels familiar and is easy to use. |

Well, that worked for a while, but now that room stopped working. However, I have a new one: tinychat.com/m0vt3r |

And apparently the YouTube option isn't working anymore. Sorry, guys. We can try again tonight, though. Hopefully, it'll work better. I'll be back on around 6:30 or 7 p.m. (Central), so figure about 7:30 (Eastern), 5:30 (Mountain) and 4:30 (Pacific). Hopefully, YouTube will be working again tonight.

If nothing else, we can IM with people. I'm hoping it works, though...
