hiyas,
has anyone considered a basic chat room,or setting up a chat room for asd/as and parents n carers elsewhere, so people that are online at the same time can have general chit chat with each other? would take just a few people willing to be admins within the chat room, maybe only have it open at certain times,,but could come and have conversation or blow off steam if we need to.... just a thort ! x
Great suggestion. I'm sure there would be a lot of demand for a chat service, here or elsewhere.
It may be worth looking at some of the other communities we link to, to see if they offer anything similar. I know that Wrong Planet offer a chat service and whilst we can't guarantee the quality of another website's service I'm sure it'd be worth checking out.

As to whether the NAS could consider setting up a chat room, it's something we can start to think about in the long term. For us, launching the Community with this forum has been a big step and it's something we'll need to focus on in the short term (just the problems with email updates shows how many issues we'll need to fix and improve!).
But definately a great idea and should anything be set up independantly do let us know about it so we can explore linking to the service.
Hmm, I clicked on that link and it says 'Page not found' :/
