I use Google Plus and Facebook, (and they are both shit).

So what have you got against Beehive?

You only use that because of Teh. In Teh Podcast thread you made it quite clear that you'd rather use G+ for text-based communication.

I made it quite clear I'd rather use Hangouts over Skype.

The ability for anyone to drop in and integrated-with-notifications text-based messaging is just a bonus, and does not at all affect my opinions of Beehive - which is the only forum package I'd ever recommend or willingly use (and probably the only reason my server actually has PHP on it).

You say that, but we know that secretly, deep down, you hate it. Because the Post button is 3 pixels too far to the left.

In what way does Skype not have integrated text based messaging with notifications?
Also, I can't think of a signature, any ideas?

Haven't we been over this before?

If you and Kos are having cybersex right now, Skype offers no way for me to see that it is occurring, nor is there a public chat area linked to the conversation.

I saw statistics, this week, that suggest Google Plus is overtaking Facebook, mostly since Facebook forced 'timeline' on everyone

'Overtaking'? really? In terms if speed of growth at best, I'd imagine. And I'd also think it's more to do with Google automatically signing people up to Plus, rather than anything to do with the 2 day annoyance at Time line.

I've somehow managed to avoid the forced timeline thing, for my own profile at least, though no idea how.

Anyway, any chance of getting a source for that?

It's probably something like new signups per month, or maybe just people with Google accounts.


Ok, I looked it up and the actual finding is that 78% are satisfied with G+ whilst 61% are satisfied with Facebook - out of 70k Americans interviewed.

I'm not sure how much bearing "satisfaction" has - gien that the ratings for search engines Google, Bing, and Ask are 82%, 81%, and 80% respectively...

Actually, there's a better indication of the quality of results: 84% of those surveyed are satisfied with the FoxNews website.

That wasn't the part I was disputing, it was the IM/notifications thing.

 

Actually, if we make a permanent "Podcast" room and invite everyone who's interested, chat is persistent and stuff that's posted while you're offline comes up when you log on. I'm not too sure how it behaves when people in the room are in a call though. Besides, do we want people dropping freely into the podcast while it's being recorded? If someone's late or wants to join after it starts for whatever reason, surely it would be better to co-ordinate that with the people in the call and be invited when they're ready? That can be done fine via Skype.

 

And I'm not saying G+ isn't perfectly viable, I don't really know the mechanics of hangouts so I can't pass judgement on that. I'm just not sure what's so bad about Skype.

Also, I can't think of a signature, any ideas?

Everything is so bad about Skype.

I really don't want to get into an annoying long-winded explanation, so I'm not going to waste time on that at all.

I do! I would like the podcasts to be as random and undirected as a thread here can be.

I don't actually care how that might be achieved - and I'm pretty sure someone else suggested Hangouts and I just seconded the idea - but again I can't be arsed going on and on about it.

Pete uses G+ - 521 million people use Skype.

 

See?
