<h2>Hello, and welcome!</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>Humbug is a little different than some chat systems you may have already
|
|
used.<br />
|
|
Here's what you need to know:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Every message has a <b>stream</b> and a <b>subject</b></li>
|
|
<li>A stream is kind of like a mailing list -- it represents a group of people -- and anyone can <i>subscribe</i> to a stream and start getting traffic there</li>
|
|
<li>A subject, on the other hand, is what the message is <i>actually about</i></li>
|
|
<li>(You can, of course, send private messages.)</li>
|
|
<li>All of these are displayed simultaneously, in an interleaved way, chronologically</li>
|
|
<li>Time flows down, and the page does not automatically scroll</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>This means we can have a conversation about git, jQuery,
|
|
fundraising, where to go to lunch, and a message from your commit bot
|
|
all simultaneously--without it getting unmanageable.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Let's take a look</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<img class="screenshot" src="/static/images/streams-example.png">
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Here, we have three conversations occurring simultaneously:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>One on stream "humbug" with subject "Lunch", about where to go to lunch</li>
|
|
<li>One on stream "humbug" with subject "Humbug testers", about early beta testers</li>
|
|
<li>One automated notification on stream "commits", about a commit made to the repository</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Some things to know</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>"Enter" will start a reply to the message with the blue line by it (in the example above, the one with subject "Humbug testers")</li>
|
|
<li>When you send the reply, it will appear at the very bottom of the stream (not directly below the message you reply to)</li>
|
|
<li>After you're done typing a reply, you can send it with Tab followed by Enter (just pressing Enter will add a new line to the message)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<h3>That's it!</h3>
