Welcome to the Blind Melon Forum! Online Vigil 2007 Information _____________________________________________________________________________________ Saturday, Sept 22nd - Starting at 3pm EST What is the Online Vigil? The online vigil is a way for those of us who cannot attend the actual vigil in Indiana to come together as a group to remember Shannon. Last year's vigil was amazing and we decided to have it again this year. We shared our blind melon stories, laughed, cried, made new friends and ofcourse, payed our respects to Shannon Hoon! When is the Online Vigil? This year, the vigil will take place on Saturday, September 22nd and continue all day into Sunday. (or until we all decide to pack it in). Where is the Online Vigil? The vigil will take place mainly on Yahoo Instant Messenger. We've made a group decision that this program is best suited for everyone's needs. You can download Yahoo Instant Messenger for free here: Feel free to add any of the following usernames to your contacts list: omg_shana_is_on jordonsmom: wrmj@sbcglobal.net elva: elvirasaa@yahoo.com meloncholy: meloncholy1977 hanna: hannamaarit Barbara: baarbr
Once you've added a name(s), send any of us an instant message and we can invite you into the Vigil Chat.
___________________________________________________________________________
If you have any other questions feel free to post a message in this thread. **ANYONE CAN ATTEND. EVEN IF YOU AREN'T A FREQUENT MEMBER OF THE FORUM OR YOU STOPPED BY JUST FOR THIS, WE WOULD LOVE TO HAVE YOU JOIN US AND HAVE THE CHANCE TO MEET ANOTHER FELLOW MELON-HEAD**

Well let's have it on Yahoo IM then? Although I just sent out a pm to everyone, lol. But it's no problem to send another one if we change the plans. I was thinking about this and Kevin won't be there anyway and I'm not sure...I don't know if anyone else has a mac here? So YIM would be totally ok, in the worst case I won't be able to hear you but usually everyone types anyway and I can put on melon on my own

Ok, let's use Yahoo then, I'll send another PM. As for the Skype virus, I think all programs are targeted by viruses anyway, and it mostly depends on bad luck and the quality of your security (anti virus softwares etc.). I know you got a virus through MSN once Mere, but I know nobody else who got it although they use it a lot. I think you just had bad luck Although MSN probably is the most targeted by viruses. Where did you get that link? I suggest we have the online vigil all weekend, whenever we can be online. Also, can a few people post their YIM IDs here so that I put them in the PM and people can add you to get in the conference? I want to make sure I put IDs of people who don't mind them to be posted. I'll put mine too but since I don't know yet if I'll be there it would be good to have other IDs.

I'm a little nervous to DL any new programs to my PC. The last thing I need is a crash, with peak season of my job starting tomorrow.

Shana, I modified your post cause you forgot to change "You can download Skype for free here" into "You can download Yahoo Instant Messenger for free here".

I also added Rebekah's contact and mine in your post Shana, I hope you don't mind, I think it's better that all the info is in the first post.

you can put mine down its wrmj@sbcglobal.net Are you sure it works if they add your email? Usually I add usernames And your email is not a Yahoo email, is that ok too? Do you know if people already added you this way and it worked?
