You can use irc to 'chat' with Nicaraguans.  Some info from Musickey:

People can chat in Nicaragua irc news by going to my page and entering
for server any of the following :

irc.cic.net
irc.erols.com
undernet.mindspring.com
u2.abs.net
irc3.concentric.net
tai.wwa.com
irc.lvdi.net
elric.internetconnect.net
irc2.worldnet.att.net
undernet.nac.net
home.amug.org
irc.cetlink.net
irc.aros.net
irc.connetnet.com
hobo.il.net
irc01.irc.aol.com
irc06.irc.aol.com

Then for port, enter 6667

and for channel enter nicaragua or nicaraguita

Users will need a computer with an irc chat program to access the
honduras channel

These can be found for free download on the internet.  Try searching for
pirch, mirc or irc
also search for archie which lets you search for files on the internet,
and then search for those irc names.

For those that have webtv, they can go to my webpage at
http://home.talkcity.com/basinst/musickey

and use the chat4tv  irc.

This irc also lets them search for sites on the web while in chat, and
they appear below the chat screen, just scroll down.

This will allow chatters to access hurricane info while chatting, and
move back and forth between chat screen and what ever central american
site they searched for.
