I spent some time tonight getting a live chat feature working on the ProgressiveWayneCounty.org website. I believe it might be the only live chat room up and running that exists for Wayne County citizens in general…correct me if I’m wrong.

On other community websites I’ve been involved in, it was quite a useful way for folks to connect, but that’s often over a geographical distance. I don’t want to make it any easier than it is to isolate ourselves from each other when we don’t need to be, but for those who might not have time or inclination to meet in person about the issues at hand, an online chat can sure be handy. We’ll see.
Have something to say about that? Read and add comments below.
