Blabs are just like rooms, where people can gather to talk. When you’re first starting out, you can either create your own blab, or accept an invite to join one from someone you know. In either case, a list will appear of all the blabs that you can access. This list is located in the middle pane of the main window view, and is labeled the Blab Center.
The middle panel of the user interface is all about blabs.
Use the Blab Center to not just exit and enter blabs, but also browse the various contents of who is in the various rooms.
To create a new blab, click the plus (+) button at the top of the Blab List. This will open a dialogue to let you enter the name of your new blab.
Enter a name for your new blab.
Another way to add a blab to your Blab Center is if you are invited. Invitations to a blab appear in Messages pane to the far-right of the user interface. Clicking on a message in your Bulletin Board will open it, and allow you to reply.
Click on a new message to view the available functions. New blab invites or friend invites will let you Accept or Decline.
If you are being invited to a blab that is not on already in your Blab Center, you will be presented with the option to accept. Moments later, the blab will appear listed in your Blab Center. Then, simply double click the name of the blab or click the button labeled “Join” to jump in.
Once you have a blab established in your list, you can right-click it’s name to bring up more functions.
Right click on the name of a blab in your Blab Center to bring up a list of other functions.
Note that one of the functions is the ability to create a Sub Blab.
Sub blabs are rooms just like blabs but they are “nested” so that member of a parent blab can see the sub blabs and the people who are inside them at any time. They’re a great way to have private conversations without disappearing from other members of a blab who might also want to talk.
Use sub blabs to create rooms within rooms where you can have private conversations while still being visible to the rest of the membership.
Lastly, if you are inside of a blab, you will see a button labeled “Make Key” in the bottom of the Blab Center.
Use the make key button to copy the blab's ID to your clipboard.
Clicking this button will copy that blab’s URL to your clipboard, so you can paste it to other people. Remember, all Blabbelon blabs are web addresses so they have easy to handle web links. Your friends who click on the links will pop straight into your blab via Blabbelon web. Alternatively, if you give your friends a URL and they already have the desktop app installed, they can paste the link directly into the text box and click “Process Key” as show in the image.
Take URL's for blabs and paste them into the Desktop App.
