I think that makes it 2pm Thursday for me... I'd love to be there, but have an appointment at 2.30 this week

Good luck with it Bill.. and see you in week 2 hopefully.

Any chance of logging these chats? 2AM for the radio show is pretty bad, 5AM is even worse

[Bill]

I'll log them Fonz. I haven't yet quite figured out where I am going to store the logs. But I'll come up with something.

We might try having chats at other times, too. The IRC channel has a lot of free space available.

[spookyx]

will there be rum and cookies?

[Greenguy]

More like cum & rookies

[Jeka]

Wow 5am is pretty late, I hope I will make it and stay up until 6am

[Bill]

Just a final notice that the chat will be starting soon...

You know, when the idea for this first got started, I was thinking, okay, this will just be a little casual thing. How many people would come to it? I figured maybe half a dozen, 8 or so. ;-}

I'm a little surprized that there seems to be a fair amount of interest. That's cool.

[cd34]

crap, due to a few issues, I missed the first one.

sorry Bill, I really meant to be there, but, if you knew the reason, you'd certainly understand.

[adamneve]

sounds very good, but no way i can be there
need to sleep sometimes also

[ronnie]

Especially since no matter how many times it said 11pm in this thread, I managed to get the time wrong and show up at midnight.

[Jeka]

All my questions got ignored

[Jeka]

how can I save the chat? The log option did not work and I have the chat still open but don't want to copy and paste that out because it's a lot and I can't scroll down when I mark it.

[Bill]

Sorry Jeka, there were just too many questions and topics coming too fast. I was typing as fast as I could, but with chat, things can easily slip by.

I'll make a point of trying to answer your questions first next time.

I lost my log too. I had been working all day, doing graphics and editing sites, and my computer locked up on me just as the chat was ending. So my log never got saved.

It was a good chat, covering a lot of subjects.

[Jeka]

I still have the mirc chat open but how can I save the chat history?

[Toby]

I have the chat in my mIRC log file, but it's rather messy to read since it includes mIRC format codes that don't translate well in a plain text file.

[Bill]

Did you turn on logging on that window? If you turned on logging I believe it will just save automatically when you disconnect.

If you didn't turn on logging I think the only way would be to select and copy into something like wordpad. (notepad has that size limit, probably won't take the file.)

That's what I would try first, is the select and copy. I don't remember wether cntrl-A will select all within the window- give it a try.

I'll be here all night, let me know if that works.

[Bill]

Toby, here's what my log looks like- it doesn't have too many wierd control characters in it. But, I only have the last few minutes of the chat... (I've edited this a little bit, to remove some urls and comments.)

<Bill_> Some nice "hooks" in that writing Trixxia! I think you could get even deeper into your sell, your close is still a bit passive. But nice overall.
<Bill_> I would definitely have linked your main sell line "Get YOUR Dick inside those CHEEKS!
<TopBucksTrixxxia> Bill - I haven't worked on that type of promotion in awhile - I do most of the writing on my husband's site now but not as 'horny' as I used to be when I started heheheheh I need to get back into that type of stuff
<Bill_> You picked a good strong visual image, and you were _behind_ it, you put energy into it.
<Bill_> People don't buy porn that someone just points to and says, Get this type of porn here. They want to feel EXCITED about buying.
<LowryBigwood> i gotta learn that
<Bill_> Like they are getting in on a hot thing. If you put YOUR energy into the sell, the surfer who is on the fence will feel that, and it overcomes their inhibition.
<spookyx> IMHO its the stange niches that sell now
<spookyx> if you promote it right
<TopBucksTrixxxia> I agree - what I used to do was put myself in their shoes - skeptic that I am, it would really take a lot for me to join
<natalie> i need to work on my selling too
<Bill_> Well folks, I had a great time, altho I know there was a lot of things that we just started or touched on - we will get to them in the future.

[Jeka]

I copy and pasted the whole chat now. Took about 7 minutes argh

[Jeka]

Here's the whole chat log file.

[Toby]

My log is alot messier than that. I run an add-on script that I use for controlling the rowdies when I fill in as chat OP for live cam shows. Here's a small sample.

[22:08] 04(Bill_04): Well, I had kind of a introduction planned, about how I am the lazy type of se guy, and talking about centralized and decentralized strategy, and then how to build se into regular freesites. but...
[22:08] 05(Toby05): the find and replace is a handy tool, but ya gotta be careful
[22:08] 04(spookyx04): i can't get used to dreamweaver, i like homesite
[22:08] 04(spookyx04): dreamweaver seems sooooo slow
[22:09] 04(spookyx04): and i am on a fast system
[22:09] 01(natalie01):
[22:09] 01(Jeka01): I love dreamweaver hehe
[22:09] 01(LowryBigwood01): So, what do yall think about Yahoo's latest shuffle?
[22:09] 01(SexVideoContent01): had dreamweaver, I prefer Hippie98 though. it's older but works well and its fast
[22:10] 04(spookyx04): our designer uses dreamweaver, i have to go behind him and fix stuff so it works in firefox/mozilla
[22:10] 04(spookyx04): :|
[22:10] 04(Bill_04): instead, if anybody has any questions or issues, just speak up... we'll see what's what.
[22:10] 04(spookyx04): bill tell us about yourself
[22:10] 01(LowryBigwood01): I have an issue with Yahoo, my listings have been all over the place for almost a week, and now i lost a good listing....
[22:11] 01(Jeka01): I wonder if you use / if you should use javascript for outgoing sponsor links
[22:11] 01(SexVideoContent01): Hi Bill, thanks for the replies on my se thread the other day. for seo stuff I'm a complete newbie
[22:11] 04(Bill_04): I don't really follow stuff like yahoo's shuffle Lowry. After you've been thru it a dozen times it doesn't seem that vital.

[swedguy]

Nice one Jeka, much appreciated

Will the SEO chat always be on the same time?
