Gmail chat in class from October 18th

This Gmail chat was initiated at the beginning of class because Allison could not physically be in the classroom.  Laura first started a personal chat with Allison and then she added me to it as a group chat.  We were unsuccessful adding Sheila because she was "offline" according to Google although she was actually logged in.  Stupid technology.

Laura Maxwell has joined.

 Allison Bowles Davidson (allisonbowles@gmail.com) has joined.

This Gmail chat was terminated and we moved into Second Life.  We had to figure out how to create a group chat in second life, which is actually called a "Conference" in that virtual world.
