Since there is always room for improvement we thought we could make our chat just a bit more flashy. We are proud to announce that our new chat is now available! The chat is still to be found at the bottom of every Netlog page.

What has changed?
- not only can you easily chat with your friends, you can also easily find people from your region who want to chat
- still couldn’t find interesting people to chat with? Try the advanced search option (in the tab Everyone)
- shout straight from there!
- extra statuses
- cool sounds that will alert you if someone is trying to chat with you
- an option to minimise the chat bar by clicking the arrow on the left
- an option not to chat at all. Not that you’ll want to use this, of course

More questions? Please read our FAQ !
Suggestions? Don’t hesitate and comment on this blog message.

And of course: enjoy chatting!

    Here I have to agree. I think that the usability and viability of new options should always remain the primary focus.

    Which options should be improved in your opinion? :)


    When you are chatting with someone, it should show their profile picture as sometimes it doesnt yet when ive gone to their profile page, they have a picture, its just nice to see the face of the person one is chatting to. Also i lose the chat when i go from messages to logs and have to start again or not as the case may be :)


    It rarely happends to me not to see the other person's photo. But it does happen. So you are sure you are not closing your chat when you go from messages to logs? I am asking this - silly, perhaps - question as I have never experinced that problem. If you are, is it that you cannote see the whole conversation or you totally loose it as if you closed the chat box on purpose?


    No i dont close it, i answer someones chat, click to the logs and the chat disappears completely so all that is left is the main chat icon :)

    Yep Im hearing ya Lisa... same thing happens to me... just vanishes .... then its sit and wait till it comes back eventually :)

    I have NEVER received a sound when receiving a chat alert from someone.


    Perhaps you have done it but still I think it is better if I ask you this question. Have you manage your alerts in Settings/Alerts?
