First Impressions
To impress new friends online, try to be confident but not aggressive. Be a good listener and then talk about the things that interest the person you are chatting with. Think of a few jokes to use if there's too much silence, but keep them relatively tasteful until you know their sense of humor. There are a few other tips for chatting on a video chat site. Since people can see you, it's best to avoid the old dressing gown in favor of decent clothes. Remember that body language is very important. Keeping body language open will make a good impression on online friends and may even lead to online romance. Finally, remember to smile. This is almost always an ice-breaker.
