The Instant Messenger is now back online! (and it has been improved). The Colonies.com network now has web-based instant messaging, to message someone, click on the green "ONLINE" link in their member summaries. This will open a new window with the instant messenger in it. Until the other user connects, it will say "Waiting for the other user to accept chat...", you can still start typing messages at this time.

The person you are instant messaging will get a pop up in the bottom right hand corner of the browser window. (it should pop up there within 15 seconds of you starting the instant message session). If they click on "YES", then the instant message window will open for them, and you will be connected. You will know the other person has connected when the "CONNECTED" text shows up in green.

We will be adding instant message help to the help section soon. Post any problems you have here and we'll do what we can to help you out!

In a nut shell, Colonies.com is basically the centeral community that allows you to create other communities of interest.  This means that if enough content and general interest is shown towards a certain area, example mountain biking, then we will launch a mountain bike community.  How can you generate interest for a new community you might ask?  By uploading content in the photo galleries, blog posts, and community areas.  For more help click here.

We currently have 4 interest communities running.  They are Snowboard.Colonies.com, Ski.colonies.com, Skateboard.Colonies.com and Snowmobile.Colonies.com.
Check them out to learn more.
