    Welcome to the 2nd TenForums Saturday Live Chat!


    OK fellow geeks, Ten Forums & Windows 10 enthusiasts:

    With a permission from the the forum admin & owner @z3r010 let's organize the Second Traditional* TenForums Saturday Live Chat! (* = pun intended ) this coming Saturday 30th of May 2015.

    The TenForums.com is truly a global community with members from allover the world. This makes it of course a bit difficult to find a time which would suit as many members as possible. It can't be a working day, Sunday is also not too good for some it would be too late in the evening on the work day's eve. Basically, Saturday is the safest bet. Even it still leaves the issue about the time, to find a time of the day when as many members as possible could at least shortly pop in to meet fellow members and chat.

    Last time we tried with one marathon session but already from the beginning it was clear that it was a bit too late for our members from Asia and Oceania, as well as a bit too early for our American members. Let's try it now the following way, in our common efforts in trying to get as many members online as possible:

    information   Information
    The online chat will be held on this Saturday 30th of May in three parts. Part 1 should allow the members from Asia and Oceania to participate, Part 2 should be OK for the European members and the Part 3 for our American members. You can of course participate in all three sessions if you so wish, it's just that dividing the chat throughout the day like this, the more members have a realistic possibility to be there.


    The chat will be online 30 minutes before the start time of each part for you to test the connection, and will remain online as long as there are attendees, at least two hours per part. A link to each live chat session will be posted here in this thread two hours before the start of the Part 1.

    See this tutorial for instructions in joining the live chat using the Lync Windows App as a guest if joining from Windows 8 or later: Lync App - Join an Online Meeting as Guest - Windows 10 Forums

    If you will join using Windows 7 or older or any other OS or do not want to install the Lync App, see this Microsoft support article for instructions in joining using the Skype for Business Web App: Join a Skype Meeting with Skype for Business Web App

    Notice that whichever of the two above mentioned apps you use to join the chat, you will not need any Skype, Skype for Business or MS Account. Simply select a screen name for you and join. It would be nice if everyone would use their forums username :).

    You can of course join using the Lync or Skype for Business desktop apps if you have an organisational Lync Account. Please remember that in that case your personal information will be available for and seen by all participants. I recommend to at least disable your contact card showing the phone numbers. As far as I know there's no way to disable showing your account name, avatar and email address when joining with your Lync account.

    Tip   Tip
    If you want to present your desktop please let me know before the meeting starts by posting here in this thread. I will setup a separate Lync Account for this meeting with presenter rights, and when it's your time to present I will PM a Lync username and password to you here at the Ten Forums. When you have received the PM, tell me in the chat that you would like to start your presentation. At this point you need to sign out from the meeting, then sign back in using the credentials I sent to you.

    When your presentation is over I will lock you out of the meeting (you can of course join again as guest) and change the credentials for the next presenter, the credentials you got will stop working.


    See you geeks on Saturday! Please post all your questions, ideas and such about the Live Chat in this thread.

    Looks as if I will be chatting by myself most of time tomorrow, in a good company of me, myself and I :). Last time we hit 400 thread views two days before the chat, this time it's not 150 views a day before.
