How do I communicate in There?
When in There, you can just type right in the window to begin chatting with someone. Your chat will appear in a bubble over your head. In addition to basic text chat, you can also talk to others via instant message (IM), and Premium Members can take advantage of our Voice Chat feature.
What Is Voice?
Voice is beyond awesome! Finally, you can say what you want to say without worrying about your spelling. Forget “LOL”. Go ahead and laugh! Forget “ROTFL”. Go ahead and pound the floor!
It’s way simple. After a quick-and-easy set-up, all you have to do is speak normally through your headphone or the mic on your computer. Then you’ll be able to motor-mouth with your friends, whisper hello to someone new, or karaoke with the whole party at the same time.
Best of all, Voice comes with every Premium Membership. That means your one-time membership cost of $9.95 gets you Voice for the rest of your life. So don’t let the world pass you by. Join the fun, get in on the action—and hear what everyone actually sounds like! Get Voice today!
How can I find people to do things with?
If you simply want to know where lots of people are hanging out and jump into the action, you can find an up-to-the-minute list of the busiest places in There on the Places page. You can also check out the Activities page to find a list of events that are happening now. Or you can join one of over 20,000 fun and interesting Clubs!
How do I get my friends to come in with me?
It’s easy to invite your friends to come and hang out with you in There. When you use our Refer a Friend page you can enter your friends’ email addresses and even include a personal message.
Can I do this on a Mac?
