Beachcombing Clubhouse Tour
Beachcombing Club is a "server" on Discord and there are text/image and voice/video "channels" on the server.
Text and Image Channels
Each channel is designed for a specific topic. Just click on each text/image channel name, and you'll see a message describing what kinds of things you might find and post there. Scroll through the posts, comment on those that interest you, and post some of your own.
Live Channel
If you click on the LIVE voice channel, it's the same as joining a conference call. You'll immediately be connected to anyone else who is in the LIVE channel. You can turn on and off your microphone, camera, and screen sharing to participate as much or as little as you want in the conversation.
We can always add more channels, so let us know what's missing!
