I totally forgot about all the gals who ran peer-to-peer chat channels on WinMX and PowWow. My favorite WinMX channel was Pam's Confessional, operated by Pam V**** of Chicago. I was the only person authorized to run that channel in her absence.
Peer-to-peer chat software runs on the user's computer rather than a server. You could start a channel just by pushing a button and typing in the channel name. WinMX still works, but there are far fewer rooms now, and most of the people just lurk.
