International X-Trail Meet-Up Day
Hi Guys,
I was just thinking that it would be great to unite ALL xtrail communities world-wide through a simple on-line gathering event and discuss all aspects of the xtrail in a friendly environment.
I was thinking that this event can take place once a month (or once every 3 months) using the LIVE chat feature we already have as part of our Australian web site and we can host that event. It can also be rotated where other xtrail communities take their turn to host this event.
Wouldn't it be great to chat to our fellow xtrailers worldwide and share the knowledge base? I think it would be awesome!!
Think of all the new things we can learn from each other and help each other out and also think of the many friendships that can be formed.
It'll be like the X-Trail Heaven on that day where we get all xtrailers from around the world join in the discussion.
Of course it needs to be controlled and coordinated, but that part is easy to work-out once we agree on the principal.
So far I count the following active xtrail communities on the internet (Canada, UK, Mexico, France, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Ireland, Malta, Philippines, Japan and of course Australia)
Let me know what you think and I will be prepared to do all the hard work to kick this event off and we can then improve things as we go along
P.S. I will post this message to all xtrail communities I mentioned above.

Re: International X-Trail Meet-Up Day
Hi Guys,
It was worked out and based on the time zone difference that the most suitable time would be 11:00pm EST (Easter Standard Time-Sydney) on a Saturday. That way we can ensure that as many international communities would be able to make it.
If you think this is late, think again, as the guys in Vancouver would be waking-up at 6:00am for this lovely morning chat. hehehehe
Let me know what you think.

Jalal:
I posted this in the Nissan Forum as well. Hopefully it will generate additional interest when folks realize that it's not tooooo early
Why not - - nothing to loose but a little sleep (for some).
While it is an early wake-up call for the west coast of Canada (BC and the Prairie Provinces), it gets better as you move eastward.
For the folks in Central Canada (Ontario, Quebec), I think it would be around 09:00 hrs. Down East (Maritime Provinces - New Brunswick, Nova Scotia etc) think it would be 10:00 hrs. In Canada's Far East (Newfoundland & Labrador)
it would be 10:30 hrs.
So, it's Saturday, 18 March ?? Right ??
Has a topic been chosen in advance ?? Might be better, as it may be difficult to get consensus from a large group..........
Is there anything we can do to assist, in advance ??
Cheers = Roger
EDIT for After-thought:
Anyone thought about any issues re "language of choice" for the live chat ??

Re: International X-Trail Meet-Up Day
Thanks Roger,
This is really helpful information for the guys in Canada.
In regards to the topic, I will make a call on this and pick a topic of interest to many of you I think I know what it is already (but I will also have a back-up topic just in case)
It will be a bit hard to satisfy everyone and cover many topics and because this wont be the last session we organise, we will be able to take suggestions about future topics on board at the conclusion of the first live chat session.
Language is English as it's the most common one and one of the ones I speak fluently (as admin I need to understand what is being said in the live chat) LOL
Duration of the session: No time limit, but I guess realistically for us in Australia, it won't go for more than 2.5 Hours max, which I think is more than enough for the first session
Noel and I are in the process of trying-out a new live chat program and once we get it working and integrate it with our site; I will set a date, agenda and instructions on every forum where I posted the invite in.
