What in the Heck is a Talker?

A talker is a way to chat on the Internet by using only text. You connect to a talker by using what we call a telnet client to connect. A telnet client is a program that allows you to connect to our central server. Once connected, you can chat with any of our users from all around the world! We frequently have people online from the mainland USA, Canada, New Zealand, and sometimes European countries.

What are the advantages of doing this sort of chat as opposed to one of the web-based chats, AOL, IRC, or ISCA? Well, this chat is fast; when you type something it appears very quickly to everyone in the room, the connection to the internet for the server is fast, and the program is small and efficient. There is very little registration to be done to become a full user on our talker--more than IRC but less than ISCA. We have many different rooms, all with a different theme, and yet you can talk about almost anything anywhere. We have honest, interesting people here...no weirdos or sickos, our members are normal people who love to chat!

We offer many levels of "power". You can advance through levels by gaining online time by being on our talker a long time. With your commands you have the ability to do fun things: write messages on public message boards, go to different rooms, do actions, talk to Simon, our wizbot, and other fun things.

We like to consider our talker a "community". We have online parties, get-togethers, meetings, and sometimes an occasional wedding. It's a place where people get to know each other, not just pop on and off and never see each other again. We hold interesting conversations, do fun things, and have a good time.
