想聊就聊-1.12.3网上聊天(在线收听) |
M: So how did you meet Bill? W: I met him through a computer bulletin board. M: Oh, really? Which bulletin board? W: It was one I used down at the local coffee house called the San Francisco Net. It's been around since around 1991. M: I've heard about that, but I've never tried it. W: You ought to. One dollar buys you 15 minutes of computer time. A “Chat session” links you with cappuccino sippers in other cafes and also to home computers on the network. M: I have no desire to talk on a network with a bunch of strangers. W: That's the whole point. All your inhibitions disappear because you can’t see the other person. This network allows you to talk to people whom you normally wouldn’t talk to. M: I just want a private conversation with one other person. W: You can do that. A private session lets two people talk alone. This techno-chat program lets you talk about anything with everybody, without prejudice because you can’t see them. M: Well, maybe I'll tag along and watch how you talk. W: That's fine with me, but we'll have to get there early. Because after 8:00 pm, there is always a long line. M: It’s that popular? W: It sure is. M: Ok, ok. We are there tonight. So what does it cost? W: One dollar buys 15 minutes of computer time. This talk isn’t cheap. M: I don't know. I’ll feel funny talking through a computer. W: Remember, that’s how I met Bill. I guarantee you can talk to girls who would never talk to you if they saw your face. M: What's that supposed to mean? W: Look in the mirror, man. |
