Looking to find some friendly Mac users to chat it up with using your iChat accounts? Miss the old days of AOL chat rooms where you could have flame wars until 3 in the morning? Then you might enjoy Masq, which is a new program that allows you to utilize your iChat account to participate in group chats with other Mac users. Masq requires you to register a separate Masq account, but the chatting is actually done through your iChat account, so people will know you by that identity. Installing Masq is a cinch. Just drag to your preferred location and check out the documentation if you're into that sort of thing.
Once you've gone through the Masq sign-up process to get your Masq account, you can login to the program. Again, this account will be different than your iChat account.
Now that you're logged in, you can see the main chat interface. You'll automatically be included in the default chat room and there may be others available when you log on. The list of chatrooms should grow as more users log on to the service.
Inside the program, you can set some basic profile information so that others can know a little more about you. Examples include location, gender, birthday, etc.
Go here to download Masq for free.
