Thanks Aquarian, I had a look at "My Home" and found one particularly useful feature. Have you noticed at the bottom of the screen it tells you how many people are on the forum? At this moment it says “1 registered and 1 anonymous users are browsing this forum.” So I know I have the forum to myself. Last night it was particularly busy and there were 11 on the forum. Wouldn’t it be great to know who they are? Well you can. All you have to do is add people to your “Address book” and you can see if they are on line. Here’s how: Click on one of the maroon colored “SuperDave” links and it will display my profile. Click on the “Add to my address book” link then click on “My Home” and (provided I am online), to your amazement and delight you will see me listed under “Friends Online”. Not only that, it gives you useful information like “Aquarian is viewing a list of postings” and “hairdog is viewing his post in flat mode” - although unless Michele has a webcam in his bedroom I don’t know how she knows that!
