How do you add a friend to the chat list? When I click on settings for Chat, it doesn't have an option to add someone. How do I get them on my list?

you can all so sent them an email asking them to turn there chat on if it is turned off

you can start a chat with some one from there profile page

That's wonderful! Thank you so much for your help! I will give it a shot.

HOW DO I IM?
First, you must have YOUR 'Instant Messaging'
turned ON:

(Or >>My Account>>Settings>>Turn ON IM)

Then you would go to the profile of the person
with whom you wish to chat.

Under their picture there is an orange button
'Instant Message' which you would click on and
the request to Instant Message is sent.

If there is no orange button labeled 'Instant
Message' it could mean one of two things.

The person does NOT have 'Instant Messaging'
turned ON.
(In which case you could email them and request
they turn it ON.)

Or, the person is in 'Stealth Mode.'

NOTE: The mobile site has NO Instant Messenger.
