well I'm certainly going to miss the flashchat. The fact that you had to "loggin" in order to see it made it more private. Now anyone can see what's going on in the chatbox even if they are not chatting.
Despite that, the chatbox seems cool, thanks Ben!
Btw I can't use the chatbox when I'm on my iTouch
Is there any way you can add a "send message" button to the chatbox?
