DafneG listens attentively to BJ

SusanneN: Now stop the alcoholic chat for a while and let us see if BJ has something on the Tapestry for us to begin with, then we can break up and have som spritiual fun

EllenG: we have to use PINGA instead of vdka. it's much better

AntoniaM: Great to see you all and readi for tour!

TeresaD listens to bj

BJ: is the rapidly scrolling text...

EllenG: thanks

BJ: I hope you understand why I'm asking you not to talk in this chat window

SusanneN: I got a PM from Greg, saying that the private window disappeared behind the main one. I fnid this is surprising too.

BJ: Later, I'll show you how to make this screen easier to read, but I need you to see the things that are on the whole screen right now

BJ: the pm windows can be sneaky devils...you get the hang of them after a couple tries

BJ: the first feature I'm going to show you is the ME tab

BJ: click on the ME tab at the top of your screen

BJ . o O ( Greg, as a guest you won't see all the stuff that members see )

BJ: the me tab allows you to access your messages, links, files and notes from any location in Tapped In.

BJ . o O ( this is handy if you have a url that you want to share with a group )

BJ: the Settings tab is the one I want you to look at now

BJ: and create special student accounts for their students...

MargaretAP joined the room.

BeeD: great!

BJ: the students log in with their accounts and password the teacher has assigned...

BJ: and land in the group room

SaraMa: that sounds great!

BJ: when you are in the sac you can't see anyone in any of the other buildings

EllenG: i am still in the member information i got lost?

BeeD: so they do not wander in the corridors and disturb people working in their offices...lol

BJ: and people in the other buildings can't see who is logged in to the sac

KathrynDo: I just don't know what I am doing!

TeresaD: kathryn, hide your hands!

BeeD: clicking too much...lol

KathrynDo: Ahh...

BJ: Kathryn, it would help if you stopped clicking on passageways that take you out of this room
