I am so excited about this, I tested it just now and this happened:
1. The gadget was active so I sent this question from the TNCC chat widget on the TNCC page Question: Qwidget: Is it a qwidget yet?
2. The gadget noted that my question was submitted, and nothing happened.
3. I logged in to LRCLive because I am nosy, and there was no one from VCCS staffing the chat, but the question I submitted did pop up for me to answer, it looked like this

Question: Qwidget: Is it a qwidget yet?

The gadget identified patron-me as a TNCC student to librarian-me. Would this change depending on what college library page the gadget is accessed from?
And, I thought if the gadget was active that meant there was a VCCS librarian online? That was not the case this afternoon. How does that work?
