I'm about to join Taxi, I live in the UK.

The information on Taxi TV has been outstanding. I've seen about 10 shows.

To watch the show live I have to go to USTREAM? @ Midnight my time but I haven't found the live chat is working, or perhaps my questions are not being seen.

I watch the show live so I can post questions but Michael never seem to see them. Am I posting in the right place? Or should I be logging in somewhere else?

if you type your question into the "chat" as opposed to social stream, everybody should be able to see your question. theres also a rather long delay for micharl to see what you type. sometimes there can be a lively discussion in the chat itself among the viewers so your question may get lost in there. are you able to converse with the other viewers?

Welcome! Posting questions can be hit or miss sometimes, it depends on how chatty the group is. :-) It's much easier when he actually asked for them. Keep in mind there is about a 15-20 second delay between real-time and when Michael sees our texts.

Thanks everyone. :) I haven't found the chat whilst the video is playing. Where is the chat. UStream? I accept the 20 second delays and don't expect to be answered overtime. I expect there are a lot of people talking at once so that's expected.

I don't see any chat, I'm obviously either being a bit thick or not finding something in front of my face perhaps. I have the same problem with my car keys and mobile phone!


Very much looking forward to the next show and want to take part, so I feel the need to sort this before Monday if possible.

So let me ask, where do you guys go to watch the show? Is it Ustream? that is where I see it at present as youtube always seems to be posted hours later and not live.

Thanks again for the help. It is much appreciated.

Register a username with Ustream, and be logged in during the LIVE broadcast. At the top of the right-hand pane is the word "Chat" click on that and off you go.

BTW, it is so much nicer when people use their actual names as usernames on things like that.

Edit: I think your username at Ustream can be changed by:

at Ustream, after logging in, try:

Account settings (from the dropdown same position on the screen where you log in)
Profile Page (then your username is there and "may" be able to be changed?)

Thanks Russell - I'm Paul Howes BTW but I can't see how to present my name in this forum?

Any ideas?

Hi, Paul
Since you've already chosen a "handle" for a username, your best bet here in the Forums is to put your name in your "signature."
