Thing 6 - Chat

I hate blogging so much that I do several modules and then go back to do the blogs. How pathetic is that???

Chatting is NOT one of my favorite ways to communicate. It usually is so slow and no matter how great the comunication speed it is still problematic.

We use chat for reference and I find it very tedious especially with poor typists and it is takes too long to do a reference interview and the student gets frustrated. It would be so much better if we could co-browse but as it is I have to write explanations instead of demonstrating.

I have chatted in FaceBook and again much rather to be able to hear the voice  and see facial expressions so I have a clue if I am getting my point across.
