Real Time Chat with Television - an experiment

I am conducting an experiment for my thesis this WEDNESDAY in the ZML and would like to invite everyone to participate!

What: Everyone will join a single chat, then run a 'back channel' to a live television feed. The chat will be saved and analyzed and the entire experience will be videotaped (so everyone look pretty).

Who: Everyone! Please!

Why: To explore the dialogue that emerges and try out elements of play in this environment

When: We will begin at 9pm and watch a television show live. There are several options, please vote in the comments if you have a preference.

CSI (CBS, repeat, last season)
Lost (ABC, season premiere)
America's Next Top Model (UPN, hour 2 of season premiere)
Mythbusters (Discovery Channel)
The West Wing (Bravo, from 2000)

There will be open-ended question sheets handed out at the end of the hour, which are optional.

To sweeten the pot, I will bring cookies!
