[CoCo] CoCo Cafe idea

[Roger Taylor]

Yes, e-mail would be very easy to do.  All you'd have to do to sign up is 
submit your e-mail address then wait for a confirmation letter with a link 
in it that adds the address to the alerts list.  Signing off would be as 
easy with a "remove me" link in each e-mail.

I forsee busy nights this holiday season.  Last year took me by surprise 
when there were over 10 chatters a night sometimes and in some cases over 
14.

I'll probably add some more features to the Cafe when I recode it in PHP, so 
get those ideas sent my way, folks.

Roger:

How about sending an email to those who have Yahoo, GMail,
or Hotmail accounts.  If we have our IM sessions open,
then we could get these alerts too.
