❖	instant messenger instant messaging. probably one of the world's easiest forums of communication. whether you're in texas or athens, it doesn't really matter because the best part of instant messaging is that anywhere you've got internet connection, you're good to go without all that pesky, face-to-face nonsense. characters from different settings should communicate using this forum.	0	-4	-- In: ---- By:
❖	blogs have a character that likes to journal down their feelings on the internet? maybe roleplays themselves? no, just kidding, that'd be like inception. but here characters can use any kind of blogging method to get out their thoughts, whether it be tumblr or blogspot. just post their topic here and update it all you like!	1	0	Aug 11 2011, 02:51 AM In: CHARACTER TUMBLRS!!!!
