For many years, subscribers to commercial online services were able to participate in chat sessions.

Actually, the word "chat" is somewhat misleading,
實際上，“聊天”一詞可能有些誤導，
because you are not really talking to anyone.

You are just typing and reading text messages.
一旦你進入一個聊天室
Once you enter a chat room, which is actually just a web page that runs special software,
一個運行特別軟件的網頁，你可以選擇僅僅閱讀別人交談的信息，
you can choose to just read the exchanges, or you can join in by posting your own messages.

Many chat rooms focus the conversation on specific topics, such as politics or sports.

Sometimes chat sessions can lead to truly stimulating exchanges,
網上聊天有時可以使你振奮，但也可能常常是浪費時間。

你還應該知道有些聊天室與性有關。
You should also be aware that some chat rooms are sex-oriented.
然而這些都不應該阻止你嘗試這種電子交流的方式。
None of this, however, should stop you from trying this electronic interaction.
它也許會妙趣橫生，而且通常是免費的，
It can be a lot of fun. It's usually free, so there's nothing to lose. Online.
因此你不會有什么損失嘛。上網。
I stayed online chatting with friends all night. It was great fun.

I don't understand. You don't even know the "friends" you are "talking" to!
我真不搞不懂。你根本就不認識那些和你“聊天”的“朋友”！
It is better I don't know them. So I can say anything I want.
不認識他們更好。我可以想說什么就說什么。
Do you believe what they say?
你想信他們說的話嗎？
Who cares? It's just online. It's not real. Do you want to join me tonight?
管它呢！反正是在網上，又不是真的。今天晚上你想和我一起上網嗎？
Thanks, but I'm a lousy typist. Online.
謝謝，但是我打字實在不行。上網。
