Chat on the site?

I'm new to this hobby and thus far, I am really starting to enjoy it. I was wondering if anyone has thought about adding a chat box or 2 to the site. Think it would be intresting to be able to talk to others listening to a live feed of something going on. Since there are quite a bit of people streaming live feeds everyone listening to that feed would be able to talk about what was going on in real time. Just a thought, not sure how good of one it is, but figured is was worth putting out there.

Sounds like a good idea, could bring our community a little closer together, I'm sure one of the moderators will reply to your post soon so be patient & welcome to RR.

Common request...
Chat Room's
RR Chat
etc, etc

It never stays due to a lack of interest.

As Wayne mentioned, and showed the links, I had set 2 up, but the biggest problems is gathering folks together at specific time(s) and Day(s) to make it work.. They exist and will remain active, but you need to coordinate the meeting schedule.

What about a live site wide chat with a chat bar at the bottom such as that on myspace or facebook, Would One of these possibly work out?
