So I was playing a game and thinking about life and things in general.
For example I was thinking about maybe writing a short book, and as always my mind started going 200%
about all the things I could write about, but then in the corner of my mind the little troll
started shouting "You know that you will never do it", "You always think that you can do something but you can't"

I think we are all here familiar with the little troll that lives in our heads.

So I told the troll that I will talk to my friends about it and actually make a commitment.
And then I remembered that none of my friends like fantasy (Unless it involves 5 bottles of vodka)
I would love to teach them about fantasy as I know that a lot of them would really like it,
But that would be like teaching a newborn child how to fly an airplane.

And back to the topic at hand.
I acquired a Teamspeak Server* a few weeks ago and at the moment it's just gathering virtual dust.
So it hit me!
We all have our own interests and would probably be able to talk hours about them, but who would listen?
That is always the question "who would listen"
When having a conversation with "Normal people" I always spend 50% of my attention reading their expressions
and 50% actually trying to get my point across.
The dilemma there is that I get exhausted before the other person can even think about reacting.

So the "Skeleton" of the idea is
Once or twice a week we would meet up in the Teamspeak server and each of the participants would have
their time to talk.

For example if there were 5 people in the server each person would get about 10 minutes of talk time
where the rest of the group focus on listening to the one holding the "speech".

I'm sure there are already groups like this on the internet but it's much easier to join something
when you are a part of it from the beginning.

If any of this sounds like a good plan please comment :D


Teamspeak Server*
Teamspeak is a free software that people usually use when playing video games over the internet,
And the server is a private group where the host<-me can put passwords, ban, and moderate.
It works a lot like Skype which most people are familiar with.
All you need for it to work is a microphone and the software.
You can also get it on phones, tablets.

If you are planning on getting Teamspeak make sure it's from the official teamspeak website,
If you have trouble with this part feel free to message me or comment.
