A chat room provides a place for people to communicate in real time. Most chat rooms don't require users to have any special software; those that do, such as Internet Relay Chat (IRC), allow users to download it online free of charge.
To join a chat room , users will typically select from a variety of rooms and are often required to register prior to logging on. To chat, users type and submit messages that are immediately sent to the chat room for others to view and reply to. Thus real-time chat meetings feel more like face-to-face meetings than communicating via message board, though some message boards integrate real-time messaging features as well.
Chat meetings are essentially chat rooms than include a chairperson who introduces topics that others in the room take turns providing feedback on. At some meetings, an opening and closing statement is also included.
The latest development in online meetings is voice chat, where participants can actually hear each other discuss the meeting topics. With the use of a microphone and speakers, participants can talk and listen in real-tom to others in the room. Users who do not have microphones can participate in the standard chat room fashion by typing their messages in directly.
