More Information on JOTI and how to connect without the special

On the JOTI official page it lists special software that you need to
connect to the JOTI, known as IRC software. So that people don't need to
download this software to chat, I have set up a special web page with a
Java interface that will connect you directly. This is not an official
page, just an easier way to get on. The web page host has a pop-up ad,
just close that up right away, there are no other ads or banners, just
the interface. Check it out during JOTI (Oct 15-17), it's totally free,
no catch. Here's the URL:
http://www.joti.tsx.org/
Give it a few minutes to download the first time you go!
Enjoy and hope to see you at JOTI!

>To all Connected Scouters:
>JOTI - Jamboree on the Internet will take place Friday, October 15,
>through Sunday, October 17 1999.
>JOTI is a global event where Scouters and Guiders communicate from all
>over the world on the internet.
>The largest group of chatters will be on ScoutLink, and I invite you all
>to chat there.
> During the three day period, last year we had 125,000 unique
>connections, with 345, 000 total connections. Please pass this message
>on to Scouters in your units. If you are going to have a big JOTI event
>with a large computer lab, please let us know, so we may make
>accommodations. To chat, an IRC client is needed, look at the sites
>below on how to download and set up an IRC client. I encourage you to
>connect to ScoutLink prior to JOTI, to get a feel for what it is like,
>and get familiar with how it works.
> ScoutLink is the largest chat network dedicated only to Scouting. It
>is set up and run by knowledgeable volunteer Scouters. For more
>information on JOTI, check the links below.
