Chat Now In Public Beta
Our “third place”, after a successful three day beta preview, is now on the final path to launch.
What is this mythical third place I speak of?
Chat.
money.stackexchange.com
meta.money.stackexchange.com
<font color="maroon">chat.money.stackexchange.com</font>
Because you not only need a place to have intelligent Q&A; about managing your finances, you need a place to talk about the place, and a less formal “third place” to collaborate in real time with the fellow members of your community.
This is a permanent public beta, meaning chat is now live on one site in our network … forever. We plan to roll out out chat on more sites in about 4 weeks, assuming the public beta goes reasonably well.
Before visiting this public chat beta, please bear in mind:
-
You must have a parent site account (in this case, Meta Stack Overflow) in good standing with at least 20 reputation to talk in the chat.
-
Before visiting chat, be sure you’re logged in at the parent site, because we use that parent cookie to know who you are.
-
Please read the chat faq. And if you’ve already read it, humor me and read it again … it has changed, and we will continue to improve it during the public beta.
- Hop on over to chat.meta.stackoverflow.com and get to know the fellow members of your community!
Have fun — and be sure to leave your feedback for us either on meta in a question tagged [chat], or in the chat itself in the appropriately named “Chat Feedback” room.
