Hangouts Chat messages are still the best way to get immediate responses to your questions about training. It's also a great way to see who else is involved in volunteering with you. You'll be using the Chat frequently in book production so take the time to get acquainted.
One of your fist steps in training is to sign up for our Google Hangout Chats, so make sure you don't miss it!
The instructions on installing Hangouts will also give you an introduction on how to use it.

Ask questions, offer answers, and get involved. Say "hello" every now and again in the water cooler and even in your project Chats. Your voice is what makes this a volunteering community.
