Cyber Deaf World!

Posted by chillygurlz on February 8, 2008

 

Hello all… How ur week? Next week is valentine day!! A day for couples, friends and family to say “I love you”… For some people, it can be depressing too but it does not have to be that way. Next, today topic is “cyber deaf world”… Before cyber deaf world even existed, deaf culture or community were all in smaller groups and only knew eachother from the same area, it was not common to know a lot of other deaf people out of state. So I noticed, after internet came out, deaf community has started to grow even bigger and accepting more people with varies kinds of hearing loss like HOH, cochlear implant and oralist along with those who are total deaf and uses ASL. When I was about age, 14 I was learning about internet and looked up deaf sites, so I did find a deafzone.com chat room and join there… My first nick name was RRB. I remember few ppl that used to be in there. Eventually deafzone chatroom got shutdown and then deafchat.com came up. My nick name for that was lil yaz. It was a alright place for few years then it started dying and not a lot of good talks from people in there, it was just a joke sometimes. I stopped going there in year 2000. I just found out deaf chat has been shut down this last month or so but I dunno when it happened or when it will be back. You know what, I am glad I found deafread few months ago, it a perfect place for me, I actually like vlogging more then chatting… I just like to express myself. Alright, I would like to know, were any of u ever in deafzone, or deafchat.com? Which do u like the best? Deafzone, deafchat.com or deafread? I think deafread ROCKS. So tell me ur feedbacks, comments, how u feel? Alright thanks for watching my vlog.

    Hello Rita,
    I AGREE WITH YOU ALL WHATYOU SAID!!! So I was deafchat.com long time ago and I didnt like it because there are some bad people and intruped me thru private chat as they want talk abt sex stuff like that and I never comfortable with it at all then I quit to deaf chat. So I like deafread.com is better which make me so comfortable with it . But I nevee been deafzone.com .
    Rita what about deafpulse.com? I been go deafpulse.com but it is okay, but Ilke something deaf relgious that all is matter and also sign language lesson that for people to learn it . But not all of deafpulse.com which I like it .
    our week was very busy with everything and weather has been loudsy.
    I like the best is deafread.com!!!
