What will The Forum Be Like In 5 Years Time?

Chats are moving, more & more, onto visual devices, where participants can look at each other, or at Groups, to pass the time of day.

Will Your Forum go that way?

Would you rather it did? Or didn't?

Maybe it'll start with the personal mugshot becoming live?

How would that be?

This forum will not change, I understand the software is dated and can't be easily adapted so in 5 years the forum will be pretty much the same as it is now

I wouldn't like it to be visual!!

Coming in here first thing in the morning before I've even combed my hair? I think not.

I probably won’t even know what day of the week it is, never mind recognise what a computer is for!

Imagine, if we could beam ourselves up like Scotty and we could appear in another member’s home for a discussion!

Yes, so much of the personality is in the person you see!

You might have a change of likes versus dislkes once you can see them (with or without makeup)

And fancy having to dress up for a forum chat!
