Advantages: Number of people you can talk to. Disadvantages: Speed.
TALK CITY. 'Name says it all surely?' I hear you cry. Well, simply, it pretty much does. This server (www.talkcity.com) is a very large website with javascript chats catering for all chat discussions.

TALK CITY. 'Name says it all surely?' I hear you cry. Well, simply, it pretty much does. This server (www.talkcity.com) is a very large website with javascript chats catering for all chat discussions.
I found that the website was easily located by a number of search engines, and chose it because with a name like that, it must have been big business so I thought.
I quickly logged on, and decided a new username for myself. After a fair few attempts (Seemingly there was a lot of users on this system) it took a little time to load up the page with a list of chats. It had both chats for area (Mostly American - including Boston etc) and also for lifestyle, such as entertainment and sports.
Compared to MS Chat, it was sadly flawed in that the servers were just not as quick. This was sometimes infuriating, as the chat could be going fine, that net congestion would bring minutes of wait for the next section of chat.
I would recommend this service to anyone who has time to wait on their 56k modem and would like to talk to people in America. Those of us with faster connections such as cable modems in Britain may find this site very good.
Advantages: Uhmn..they have a Homepage creator? Disadvantages: Everything else - please read the opinion.
TalkCity.com has been one of the world's more popular chat server for several years. Founded and based in California, U.S.A., TalkCity boasts that it is a "well-lighted place on the Internet" - meaning that children should feel safe when logging on to this mega-popular chat server.
Now, I'll get into my dislike for this place in a minute, but first let me tell you about some of the features.
If you wish to chat with other users, you can do so through ... ...the last time I checked, TalkCity.com Web pages were not capable of advanced HTML or nice extras such as flash animation and the like.
Hosted conversations with authors, movie directors, and other semi-celebrities. You obviously won't find J K Rowling chatting with other users, but you'll find some other fairly well known writers and such in a scheduled forum so that fans can interview and interact with them. I would find this a wonderful thing, ...

Advantages: NONE Disadvantages: Too countless to list
I first begain going to Talkcity approximately two years ago. Why, you might ask? Well, I played an addictive game called acro. I simply loved this game (I still do, but don't tell anyone shhhhh) more than almost anything. When all my acro buddies from the Undernet began playing the game on Talkcity, I begrudgingly followed. The main reason I left the Undernet was for the simple fact that hardly anyone ever came there to play anymore.
Ok, so I began ... ...stifled the creativity of the game. I also began to notice that many people voted for "crapola"! I tried going to Acrophobia on the web, but found that the competition left much to be desired. A year or so ago Acrophobia also had ads, and I hated the "commercials", so I rarely went there. I began playing in tournaments at Talkcity, because I loved the competition. For years, I have captained a team that played on Talkcity. I was satisfied to put ...
