== Vision ==
+
We welcome editing of this page, it would work best for us if you login before editing so we will know whom to approach if we have questions regarding the changes you submitted.
  
To create a network of Instant Messaging.
+
== NVCtalk - Instant Messaging and Voice Network ==
 +
=== What it is ===
  
* Have live online links between all NVC people around the world.
+
Current technology offers ways to create text and voice group discussion for every kind of subject.
  
* Creating regional/interest specific communities.
+
People can now join a certain topic discussion and every message that they send to the network, via their messenger or web interface ,will be instantly transfered to every network member.
  
* Creating a worldwide NVC community.
+
NVCtalk - a new system which allows participants to use either text or voice to communicate using the instant messenger service they may already use (aim,msn,yahoo,skype...) , OR using the web.  
  
* Enabling individuals and groups to get to know and exchange resources.
+
We are forming this after finding value in participating in email NVC support groups and finding them valuable and enabling connections between persons, but frustrated by the lack of speed and nuance that would be available in face-to-face encounters. What we're setting up here is a supplement to both email NVC support groups and face-to-face encounters, that in some ways is closer to a face-to-face encounter without actually meeting.  
  
== The mechanics ==
+
This can be done at any time or at a prearranged time for that topic.
  
The network is of NVC people, but people don't seem to think it is enough to create a connection there should a topic to focus on.
+
=== Joining - ''Now open'' ===
 +
Using a messenger or web
 +
[[Instant Messaging Network/Email invitation]]
  
So suggested chat rooms:
+
==== To join with your messenger: ====
 +
===== AIM/YAHOO/MSN/Live =====
 +
1. Add a user to the contact list in your preferred messenger:  
  
*By topics:
+
For AIM/Yahoo add "NVCtalk"
**NVC Panting.
+
For MSN/Live add "NVCtalk at hotmail.com" (replace "at" with @)
**NVC Practice.
+
Other messengers are available just ask.  
**NVC Theory discussion.
 
**NVC Support give&get.
 
**NVC Certified trainers.
 
**NVC Non certified trainers.
 
**NVC Certification candidates.
 
**NVC Business.
 
**NVC Education.
 
  
*By Region/Country/State.
+
Do the same for every topic you would like to join:
  
*Private chat rooms will be available as well for interest groups.
+
*NVCww - NVC World Wide general nvc talk.
 +
*NVCpracticing - Practice NVC
 +
*NVCsmart - Ask and answer NVC questions.
 +
*NVCexchange - NVC support eachother.
 +
*NVCparenting - NVC Parenting.
 +
*NVCinbusiness - NVC in business.
 +
*NVCeducation - NVC education.
 +
We are happy to support anyone who would like to start an additional group.
  
Everybody has different messengers.
+
2. Send a message "add me" to the new users, if you don't get a response within 24 hours, send us email.
  
There will be one username which will be registered in all IM networks. for instance nvcIMadmin.
+
=== How does it work? ===
  
So a user which will join will add nvcIMadmin to his contact list in his preferred messenger.
+
NVCtalk will create a text chat room for each topic. an IM bridge is created so everyone can be in the same chat room even if they are using different messaging systems.
  
nvcIMadmin will create a text chat room and invite all people interested in that chat room. this will be done per messenger or a few messengers bridged.
+
== Current status & issues ==
  
=== ideal world vs. reality ===
+
=== Current status===
 +
* Network is up and running.
  
In the ideal world for the network:
+
=== Approached communities ===
* Any member would use his preferred IM which will be bridged to any other IM.

[[CNVC_GCC]] 4 April 2007 [[Instant_Messaging_Network/CNVC_GCC]]
* Shared group - when adding a new member to the group the group is updated for all members.
 
* Every IM would have a group of switchable database of nvcIM network members.
 
* Text chats/voice chats would have unlimited number of people which can use any IM.

NVCtalk - Instant Messaging and Voice Network

What it is

Current technology offers ways to create text and voice group discussion for every kind of subject.

People can now join a certain topic discussion and every message that they send to the network, via their messenger or web interface ,will be instantly transfered to every network member.

NVCtalk - a new system which allows participants to use either text or voice to communicate using the instant messenger service they may already use (aim,msn,yahoo,skype...) , OR using the web.

We are forming this after finding value in participating in email NVC support groups and finding them valuable and enabling connections between persons, but frustrated by the lack of speed and nuance that would be available in face-to-face encounters. What we're setting up here is a supplement to both email NVC support groups and face-to-face encounters, that in some ways is closer to a face-to-face encounter without actually meeting.

This can be done at any time or at a prearranged time for that topic.

Joining - Now open

Using a messenger or web Instant Messaging Network/Email invitation

To join with your messenger:

AIM/YAHOO/MSN/Live

1. Add a user to the contact list in your preferred messenger:

For AIM/Yahoo add "NVCtalk" For MSN/Live add "NVCtalk at hotmail.com" (replace "at" with @) Other messengers are available just ask.

Do the same for every topic you would like to join:

  • NVCww - NVC World Wide general nvc talk.
  • NVCpracticing - Practice NVC
  • NVCsmart - Ask and answer NVC questions.
  • NVCexchange - NVC support eachother.
  • NVCparenting - NVC Parenting.
  • NVCinbusiness - NVC in business.
  • NVCeducation - NVC education.

We are happy to support anyone who would like to start an additional group.

2. Send a message "add me" to the new users, if you don't get a response within 24 hours, send us email.

How does it work?

NVCtalk will create a text chat room for each topic. an IM bridge is created so everyone can be in the same chat room even if they are using different messaging systems.
