You really have to tip your hat to the folks who design online bingo games. Rather than just duplicate a static version of bingo some designers understood that people enjoy being online for the social interaction. Yes, there are those who just want to play to win but some like to interact with the other players. This is where bingo chat rooms provide a unique addition to the game. Chat rooms are live instant messaging services where bingo players can have conversations with one another. While the subject is often about bingo, it is not without precedent that players will discuss virtually any topic under the sun.

Those who are new to online bingo may also be new to chat rooms. As such, a little explanation as to how they work would be helpful. Basically, on most bingo games there will be an icon with the word "chat" or "enter chat" on them. When you click on this a window will open where people are chatting in a room. If you wish to enter into any conversations you simply type your commentary in the box. Some chat rooms also allow functions for private messages between players. Whether you wish to chat with a group, specific individuals or simply read the char comments is entirely up to you.

If there was one caveat with bingo chatting it would be the need to avoid from being too distracted from the game. After all, you do not want to miss out on any critical number and letter calls. So, keep one eye on the game when you are chatting.
