just before 4PM (Eastern) Emily will move the chat room up to near the top of the home page, and then when the video screen appears, and we're ready to start, she'll say in the chat room "Refresh your pages". I do this by clicking on "Home" on the top banner. Then "start" the video, like a You-tube, by clicking on the arrow. make sure your volume is turned on. we can make comments in the chat room, feel free to comment. we always have fun on Fridays.
