about IRC at mirc.com. Try typing IRC or
IRCII to see if you're connected to it already.
Your
ISP will probably be connected to an IRC server or tell you how to get
connected to one. When you make a
connection, you will be greeted with the MOTD, message of the day with basic
info on it then you can go to whatever channel you want.

in a slash (/) before commands. Try
"/LIST" to get a list of channels.
You
can ask questions, answer questions or just offer opinions.
To
join a channel, type "/JOIN."

Simultaneous Instant Messaging
With
instant messaging, you can send an instant
one-way
message. Simultaneous Instant
Messaging
is a bit different than this. It's like
two people talking on the phone but they're doing it by sending text messages
to each other, just those two, no one else involved as in a chatroom so if
you're in a chatroom, you could ask someone if they wanna SIM, simultaneous
instant messaging or ask if they wanna go to a private room.

Chapter
3. Internet Social Communities 1
Internet Friendships
True
in the flesh friendship is devolving to a superficial friendship with intimate
strangers you've never met on a screen.
When I was in college and only nerds used an obscure concept called the
internet, I thought those people were strange at the computer center who sat
there by themselves typing stuff into a computer then making appropriate
emotional sounds and gestures as they communicated with somebody in
cyberspace. There was a kind of
loneliness to it like it was a cheap substitute for real friendships.
What
really sold me on the lie of facebook was when this person with several hundred
facebook friends invited them all to his place for a party. Many said they were going but not one person
showed up. When he asked a few of them
why did they say they were coming and didn't show, they were taken aback as
though they thought cyberspace was a separate reality from their real lives,
kinda like a fantasy where there's no real loyalty.

How to Use Myspace/ Facebook
When
you use facebook, myspace, etc., be fun and relaxed. Use them to build relationships only. Give them a link to your website but don't
sell anything directly.
When
you build your myspace profiles:
Use
a catchy, fun headline.
Put
up a myspace photo, possibly several.
Tell
your story in the About Me Section.
State who you are. Say why you
are on myspace. Talk about career and
business aspirations.
Give
some personal information about yourself like where you live, where you were
born, what are your hobbies, your likes, your dislikes.
Call
To Action. Ask people to visit your
website or contact you.
If
you can make videos, try making a video about yourself. Tell your story and post it in your About Me
section.
Add
a Twitter box to your MySpace page so people can see what you are up to today.
Go
to youtube, type in "how to create a myspce/ facebook profile" or how
to use myspace then watch the videos.
Get Friends on Social Media
The
easiest way to make a friend and have your request granted is to read their
profile then say something like you're interested in tigers, so am I.
Facebook
has dozens of group categories to choose from, and hundreds of groups. Find some that share similar interests to
yourself and start checking out profiles.

Social Networks Info/ Social Communities
Online
A
social network is not a dating website in the strict sense of the word but
defined as a place to hang out through meeting new people and chatting.
Everybody
posts a profile which is a photo and a description of themselves with the
intent of meeting people like themselves for friendship and possibly love. There are chatrooms and instant messaging for
private chat.
You
might have heard of a teen social network called myspace.com on the news
because not only teens and young adults use it but also musicians, artists,
writers, activists, etc. to introduce their work.
Some
social networks have a business networking agenda. Some involve people who are already married
and looking for platonic friends but many people use them as a backdoor/
alternative approach to look for their soulmte.
For
more, type in social networking at wikipedia.org.

Social Media/ Social Networking Info
Social
networking helps us contact our friends and meet new ones.
Start
a profile explaining who you are.
After
you have a profile, locate the profiles of your friends, colleagues and family
members. Ask them to be your
"friends" on the site.
Once
you are friends with someone, you will receive updates on what he or she is
doing including new pictures.
Your
friends all see the same information coming from you.
You
can join groups, networks that users create about a specific topic.
If
you get a Facebook profile and then get a bunch of friends or fans, using RSS,
whenever you add a new article, facebook will send it to all your friends.
If
you join facebook then a group within facebook, whenever you add a new article
or comment, facebook will send it to all the other members of the group.
Fan
pages differ from groups in that they are publicly viewable, allowing
unregistered users and search engines to view the content. If you own a business, create a fan page for
it.
Since
it's public, search engines might pick it up.
People
who sign up as members will get any new article you post on it.

Bookmarking Info
On
your website, you put clicking icons at the end of your stories. If the reader likes your article, he clicks
on it which goes to a social bookmarking website that rates the popularity of
websites. Another reader posts a comment
saying he just read this cool story at website x. The more hits you get, the more popular your
website gets on these popularity websites.
Sign
up for a free account at a social bookmarking website then select a 'button'
that you can add to your website or at the end of each of your blog posts. Users can then bookmark your blog or website
easily.
If
a visitor likes your website, he can click on your button and this will lead
him to the social bookmarking website where he or she can post a comment about
the blog or website.
Provide
great content and make it easy for people to bookmark your website.
Many
but not all news stories, articles,
blog
posts, pictures and videos on the Internet have bookmarking buttons next to
them.
If
a person sees something that he or she likes and wants to share it, he or she
clicks the Digg button and votes for it.
They are digging it.
The
more Diggs something get, the more popular it gets leading to more people
viewing it and possibly more Diggs.
As
a member, you can comment on the items and make friends with
other
Digg users. Digg has a
community
targeted at topic areas that specialize in certain subjects.
Social Bookmarking
Websites
You
bookmark to save useful websites you like and share them with others.
Social
bookmarking means to share your bookmarks. Websites that you bookmark are
entered on a master list of bookmarks.
Others enter their bookmarked websites on the list too.
The
result is a database of supposedly great websites but the problem is that liars
get in on the action. People hype up
their own websites which could be crappy.
Save
your bookmarks on the Web.
Find
the bookmarked sites of others with similar tastes to yours.

Chapter 6. Clubs and Organizations
Join
Clubs to Look for a Mate
Strive
to find places to go where there are like-minded people you can use as a
support group and possibly meet someone there or network into meeting someone,
essentially clubs, activities and organizations, anything from country dancing
to archery, religious groups, hiking, bridge club, etc.
There
are hobby and recreation organizations out there specifically geared for
singles as well as social clubs geared for singles.
Other
clubs and organizations are geared for anyone who has an interest in whatever
it is they're pursuing regardless of marital status.
There
are married people and single's there.
You go, make friends and proceed from there. Even married people can help you hook up by
befriending you then introducing you to their circle of friends and relatives.
Don't
be embarrassed and don't be hasty if you go to one of these places. They're
insecure people just like you. If you
live in a fair-sized town, there's probably an over 40 year olds social club
somewhere that has dances and social functions weekly.
They
usually start slow so give it time before it warms up. If you like a particular group, volunteer to
get involved behind the scenes to increase your chances of a social
encounter.
There
are several ways to find leads; try the internet for local and national groups
or look in your local phone book Yellow Pages under:
Associations.
Clubs.
Hobbies.
Organizations.
Recreation.
Sports.
Call
your local stores, for instance, camping supplies stores for information about
hiking clubs, bike store for bike clubs.
Contact
your local chamber of commerce or go to your local library and ask if they have
listings of local clubs.
There
is a three book set called the Encyclopedia of Associations (#030.0 at the
library) which, beyond professional organizations, has a section on hobbies and
recreation which gives the national addresses of many clubs, even such obscure
ones like medieval organizations, historical, skydiving, barbershop quartets,
etc.
You
could contact them about information on local chapters. There are two Encyclopedia of Associations,
the three volume set for American associations and a two volume set called The
International Encyclopedia of Associations which combines all the other countries,
the primary ones of which are the United Kingdom, Australia and Canada.
There's
also the YMCA and the schoolboard's community education program.
There
are many national recreational, hobby and/ or sporting organizations
everywhere. Some have local chapters,
some don't. Some would welcome someone
with initiative like you to start up a local chapter. Some are professional, some nonprofit,
staffed by volunteers.
Some
are exclusive to a particular field, for example, Alpha Eta Rho, the aviation
fraternity, however, most are open to virtually anyone to join for the cost of
a reasonable nominal membership fee.
Many
have annual meetings/ conventions and publish regular newsletters/ magazines/
reports, hence, I won't repeat myself over and over, the fact is that many make
it a point to meet and socialize somehow.
Many
have a website with a chat room on it where mmbers talk about their mutual
interest. Good ones for women because
they're dominated by men are amateur radio/ ham radio, computer, dungeons and
dragons, paintball, chess, military collectibles, sports, etc., that is if you
can handle the lame subject matter and act like you're interested in it
something like the chick who took up golf to meet a guy but it was so boring,
she quit.
Many
clubs have penpal services where you can correspond with other members in your
area. If you're interested, simply
contact them for more information. You
could possibly start a local chapter, go to local gatherings, contribute to the
newsletter, go to the annual meeting and so on and so forth.
If
you go to church, start a single's Bible study.
If
you ever go to a convention or meeting place that requires that you wear a name
tag, do something cute with yours like write illegibly so people will have to
ask you your name or put a happy face on it or leave it hanging off so that
strangers will tell you that it's hanging.
Just smile, thank them and leave it hanging.
For
more information, refer to the recreational section of the Encyclopedia of
Associations at the library. You will
find recreation books at #790-799 at the library.Try #367 at the library for
books about social clubs although there were none at my local library.

Social
Clubs/ Hobby Clubs
There
are not a lot of websites listing social, hobby and recreation clubs especially
for every local area.
Most
social clubs are in England.
Look
in the Encyclopedia of Associations at the library then look in your local
phonebook.
Go
to local city websites to see if they have a list of clubs there somewhere.
After
that, go to the local library and look around for a free local booklet or
alternative newspaper that lists events and organizations around town.
There
are social clubs at universities that invite non-students in.

Social
Networks/ Clubs/ Communities Online
A
social network is not a dating website in the strict sense of the word but
defined as a place to hang out through meeting new people and chatting.
Everybody
posts a profile which is a photo and a description of themselves with the
intent of meeting people like themselves for friendship and possibly love. There are chatrooms and instant messaging for
private chat.
You
might have heard of a teen social network called myspace.com on the news
because older men have been going on posing as teen boys, luring girls to meet
them somewhere.
Some
social networks have a business networking agenda. Some involve people who are already married
and looking for platonic friends but many people use them as a backdoor/
alternative approach to look for their soulmte.
