The term chat room, or chatroom, is primarily used by mass media to describe any form of synchronous conferencing, occasionally even asynchronous conferencing. The term can thus mean any technology ranging from real-time online chat over instant messaging and online forums to fully immersive graphical social environments. There are also graphical user interface (GUI) text-based chat rooms which allow users to select an identifying icon and modify the look of their chat environment. Some visual chat rooms also incorporate audio and video communications, so that users may actually see and hear each other. However, some find these types of environments cumbersome to use and actually an impediment to chatting. The primary use of a chat room is to share information via text with a group of other users. New technology has enabled the use of file sharing and webcams to be included in some programs and almost all Internet chat or messaging services allow users to display or send to each other photos of themselves. With a prolific rise in the activity of 'Sexting', where people send digitised nude or otherwise sexually explicit photos of themselves electronically to be viewed by others, it is becoming increasingly common for chat room users to exchange nude or sexual photos.[1]

2. Thanksgiving and That Stressless Recliner
November 02, 2009
One of my first memories in spending Thanksgiving at my grandparents house with my family is always of my grandfather who would greet everyone, chat about sports, John Wayne westerns and what my grandmother was cooking for dinner in the kitchen. We always looked forward to that meal and we would all sit around groups of tables talking away on a variety of topics.
When desert had come and gone, we all took up spots on furniture throughout the room. I always remember my grandfather though sitting down in his favorite reclining chair and looking full and stress free after a great Thanksgivi... (read more)
