you are over analyzing here Lew, I was answering the actual not the perceived
question which was how do i communicate with a number of individuals in real
time over the internet. Just because people are in a tc bubble does not mean
they cannot embrace new and different ways of doing things.
I am and have been an assistive technologist. If someone wants a voice chat
client, yes, the options are few to non existent but if they want to
communicate in real time, it i possible. I do irc on my iOS devices all the
time.
I use jabber in mavericks to communicate with groups and this also works with
iMessage.

david, my friend, I admire you…. I admire you more than life itself but in all
fairness you drive me mad lol
what you need to understand is that not all users have equal skills. one user
may be a proficient typist, another will rely on speech, we all communicate in
different ways. If I had my way, I’d have a USB port or two, ethernet and
wireless interfaces, thunderbolt 2 port etc attached to somewhere on me
comfortable het accessible lol but that’s going to be a upgrade that even god
might have to consider. that’s if he’s still using MS DOS 6.22
In today’s IT world, we deal with clients with different needs and disabilities
/ specialist requirements that aren’t always open to the general public, so
this is where we try and solve problems with VNC based systems with messaging
and audio support. whether it’s as a trainer / admin role or user to user
collaboration, solutions are out there, but in our present state, the tools we
need to do our jobs are difficult to acquire in accessible bases.
If we could get iMessage to behave as a portal to a client and take control,
run support, we’d be laughing, but when iChat was axed in favour of Messages
(with special thanks NOT! to the dilberts who redesigned an app environment and
killed off functionality to clients, well done there!) that’s just how it is.
anyway, that’s my side of the fence. after a hard night last night working til
god knows what time this morning, now suffering with a bad throat and feeling
tired,, that’s me over for the day lol.
