Exciting Changes To DailyStrength Chat

Hey everyone -   We’re happy to announce that we're in the final stages of upgrading your Chat experience on DailyStrength.   Our new, improved chat product is soooo much better, and here’s why:   1. The chat “bar” sits right in the bottom of your browser so that you can use DailyStrength and talk to your friends at the same time. If you have ever used Facebook, you’ll see our experience is very similar.   2. You’ll receive alerts right in the chat bar when a friend comment on your journals, writes you a private message, sends you a hug and more.   3. It’s much easier to be in multiple chats at the same time.   Our new chat bar launches on the morning of Thursday June 11th.   On Thursday, June 4th, we will be disabling our current chat so that we can replace it with the bar. Please bear with us for this short time period while we turn on this improved experience.   We know that this has been one of the most-requested features on DS for a long, long time, and we’re happy to finally be delivering a superior solution.   See you online!     Doug

Thanks again for the positive thoughts, folks. The new chat bar is now live and we\'re using it internally -- it looks great.

I find it to be somewhat different from the old userplane chat - much easier to hold conversations and write journals at the same time...and the alert feature of new events is....sweet.

anyway, we\'re aiming for next Thursday (if not sooner), and we appreciate your patience while we make it perfect. Thanks.

Well, I joined today because I am desperate to talk to people who are in the same boat. I belonged to another internet support group and that was going splendidly and they were my lifeline. Then they \'upgraded\'. Two years later they were still upgrading. When the site was finally \'upgraded\' they had lost all my information and contacts and all the friends I had made were gone. It was very frustrating. And here I go again. Quite frankly I phoned our local branch of Lifeline this morning and the phone just rang and rang and rang and then the ring was terminated. I was suicidal. I just wanted to talk to somebody - and now this. Maybe God is trying to tell me something. I do hope you will be up and running by the 11th or maybe I really will need Lifelife. I hope they answer the phone next time. And I am not kidding. I am serious. I am in deep water emotionally and physically and I do not have anyone to talk to that is why I joined up today. I will just keep praying that God\'s strength is truly sufficient.
Cheers. Hope to chat to some of you soon.
