I guess what I had in mind wasn't anything so formal. Come if you can, don't come if you can't - and with each board being able to have its own private chat room - people could come and go, congregate or not anytime, really.


For example: The flylady board has a private chat, as does my April parenting board and there are shceduled weekly chats, but in addition, anyone who needs some fellowship or support can post - Hey I'm in chat! and be joined at any time.

Something like that may work - but I know when I did it we had to "share" a chat room. I think Diet and Fitness boards all together only had one or two chat rooms. So the time had to be officially scheduled with the iVillage moderators and it had to work around all the other boards scheduled times. Plus for each one reports had to be completed of topics discussed, number of people, etc. and emailed to iVillage immediately after the chat. It was a very "structured" type thing.

A room that was always there, more informal and open might work much better, don't know if that is an option or not.

For a very short period of time in the past year before Diet & Fitness merged with the Health channel we had our own dedicated chat room that we could just pop into whenever we wanted.

Just a note to let you know that chats no longer require a CL to lead them.
