Update on Hurricane Ike: From Annette Potter - We are all alive and well
and would like to thank everyone for their thoughts and prayers. Our family
(Children of Creed Flannery
Potter and Ida Fuller) are all well and alive and grateful for all the help
we are receiving from 1000's of people from all over the US. We cannot thank all
those enough who have come to Texas to aid those of us who have been through
Hurricane Ike. We are just blessed and extremely grateful. It's great to be back
online.

Instant Messaging to

you don't get an answer right away it is because we are away from the computer,

> Chatroom 1 Message Length Limit
Problem:
For those of us who have tried to leave long messages in this
Chatroom 1; So far, I have not been able
to get help from meebo.com to increase the message limit size. I can find no way
to increase it myself in the settings. I will continue to try to figure out how
to increase the size, but until then, we can use the
Feedback
or Comment pages to
post long messages. In Chatroom 1 your message length is limited (in my opinion)
way too much. You can't leave long messages n this one unless you follow the
instructions below.
Instructions to sign in to Chatroom
1:
1. Go to Meebo.com
2. Sign up for a meebo user name and password (or you can sign in with your aim,
yahoo, google talk, icq or jabber account. if you sign in with any of these
accounts, skip step 3 and go to step 4)
3. Sign in at meebo.com
4. Click on the "meebo rooms" link at the top of the page
5. Type in yeapotter in the "Find More Rooms" text box on the popup window menu
bar
6. The yeapotter room icon will appear in the popup window - click on the "yeapotter"
icon to open the message window and there you can share long messages with us.
> Chatroom 2:
In the other
Chatroom 2 we
can leave long messages, but this one doesn't save the chat log. You can use
copy and paste to save your chats into your Notepad, but the messages you leave
in Chatroom 2 are not there after you log off and log back in. Also, if you
close the chatroom page, your chatroom is no longer available to you. You don't
need to register or sign up to use Chatroom 2. You do need java enabled browsers
for Chatroom 2. Each one has their own disadvantages.
 Our Memorial Page to our
beloved, precious Mom, Ida Fuller Potter who passed away on 1 July 2007. We
mourn her loss beyond words.
