 What's up guys? EvilD here and today I'm going to speak to you about this new website I've found and it's called Chatterplot. And basically the idea behind the website is that you can find speakers of the language that you're interested in or you're learning within your local area just based off of a map of where you are. Now obviously not just speakers but you can also find maybe language meetups or teachers and the whole idea is it's kind of like a very informal way of finding people and meeting up with them at your local cafe or stuff like that. If you've used the Meetup website that's very structured and you need to have pre-designed meetup groups and stuff like that. It's like that concept where you can form meetups but there's none of this whole structure. It's just you find someone in your area you contact them and boom you can meet up with them and do whatever language wise you want to do. So let's just look at the website before I ramble on too much. Now as you can see the basic setup you've got here it's already picked up where I am. I'm in Rockdown in New South Wales so if you want to come and get me come on I'll take you. I'll take you. No I'm not that brutal. So yeah or you can search by languages stuff like that. Now obviously you would first go to sign up and then you'd select whatever your language is that you're interested in what languages you're learning stuff like that. But you know I've already done that and it's pretty self explanatory. Now I'm going to log in my email address will be blurred out just so you guys can't send me random spam. Because I know you're never going to send me anything helpful. So I'm just going to log in. Log in. Log in. Okay so I'm in. Now as you can see apparently my name is Evil Deer. Deo de Lakatoi which just translates as Evil Deer God of the Cats because that's who I am. Now before I just go a little bit too far into it I just want to say this website's in its beta stage. So basically that means that there's still a lot of issues with it. Don't try and use it on IE at the moment because it just breaks. And they've acknowledged that they're working on that because I've actually been speaking with some of the people who are programming this website. There's also it doesn't work on the iPad it works partially on the iPhone. So basically at the moment just try to stick with Google or one of those types of browsers and using your computer. Just give it a few weeks and they reckon they'll have most of these bugs all ironed out because it's in beta stage at the moment. But there's already a lot of people signed up funnily enough. So it looks like it's going to be pretty impressive. Now first up you want to do because as you notice this website's in English. You probably want to change the website's language. So what you want to do is you want to go up to Evil Deer or whatever your name is. Go to settings. Okay and now once you're in settings you want to go down just pretty much right down to the bottom. And it's got display language and you'll notice the language is our German, English, Esperanto, French and Russian. Now how cool is that? Obviously I run an Esperanto channel and having Esperanto as one of the first available languages is pretty sick in my mind. I'm pretty happy with that. I'm assuming later on there's going to be a lot more languages but at the moment that's your choices. So go learn Esperanto so you can be, you know, ahead of the curve type of thing. So we're going to select Esperanto because that's what we care about. We don't care about all those other random languages. Well maybe you do but I don't. I don't. I only care about Esperanto. So now it's changed over. The interface is all pre-translated. Awesome. So now we can go back to my actual profile. Now obviously you've got things like up here like my events and stuff but I haven't signed up for anything. You can see it's picked up. I'm here in Sydney. I'm just going to close this stuff off. You can write some random information about yourself there but we don't care about that. Now as you can see there's already like a marker on the map here to say there's actually something here in Sydney. So I'm just going to zoom in on that. Let's have a look what that is. That's me. Okay that's what that marker is. But I did see another marker earlier. I thought it was over here somewhere. Now I'm going to zoom out now. Let me go right back to the map. Oh whoa okay there we go. So we've just changed over to the US. Now this website is as I said very new so there's not much in Australia at this stage. It looks like there's a few people that have signed up to do some stuff. But let's go to the heart of where this is all from. I believe this website was actually designed by a German group. So obviously there's going to be a lot of groups there at the moment. And if you're in like a random location and you see that there's no one there. I'm assuming you just have to wait a bit until people start signing up. Or just get your friends involved type of thing. Okay so nice big hot patch right here. Let's go zoom in on Berlin. That's where it's all happening by the looks of it. And as you can see the further you zoom in the more names and stuff that appear down the side. You can see these different profiles. I'm not sure what these people really like. You know what look there's Chuck. You know what I'm going to use him as an example. So apparently he speaks English, Esperanto and German. I'm not sure about his English. He seems like a pretty poor English speaker to me. I wouldn't believe that and I'm just messing with you. So we're looking at Chuck's profile here. You can see there's some information about him. This is his preferred meeting location. And you can just send him a message just like that. Just send the message away. And I'm assuming if he comes to my profile looks at me and goes clearly this is evil deal. I'm going to contact him. Then you can just reply and then you guys can meet up and do whatever. And that's basically the concept of the website. Just find people wherever you are. Contact them, meet up, start practicing. How cool is that? There's no subscription fees or anything like that. That's a problem with meetup. With meetup if you want to actually set up meetups. You've got to pay like a subscription service in order to do that. Which is real pain. But this is pretty cool because you don't need any of that. You don't need to be really formalizing your meetups. Just drop pins type of thing. So anyway, that's sort of what we've got going there. I'm pretty much done with that. Now as I said, this website is in the beta stage. So there's a lot of issues with it. Every now and then things just won't load. You'll just have to refresh the page and stuff like that. Just give it a bit. They've been working massively on this. Like I actually checked this website out about a week and a bit ago. And since then I've actually seen a fair few improvements. So yeah, that's pretty much it. I just thought you guys might like that. Because us Esperanists, this is going to be very handy. And as you can see, look down the right hand side here. Esperano. Esperano. German. What? You got no Esperano? Jesus Christ, what's going on there? But as you can see, this guy's apparently a ninja. There's a fair few Esperanists on this website. And I reckon once obviously this goes out on my channel, there'll be a fair few more. And this might help you guys actually find other Esperanists in your area. So I recommend you all go sign up. Check it out. Play around with it. Tell me how it goes in the comments below. And that is pretty much it. So if you've liked this video, give it a like. Share it around with your friends. Subscribe to my channel if you haven't already. And I'll see you in the next video. And if you're not there, I'll find you on chatablot. And we will meet. But you won't like it. And now, a massive shout out to my Patreon sponsors. And I'm going to totally butch this name. So I'm so sorry. Please fix my pronunciation. I don't know how to say that. Sarah SC and Shane Power.
