Many forum sites I go to also have a basic chat client that members can log into and talk with other forum members, I think we should add one of those to our site.

Wouldn't that be general chit-chat :?
Or are you suggesting something else?

Well I guess it could be about anything but it woiuld be nice if you could get in the chat and discuss roomba's buying, our own, ect. Even if only 2-3 people were in the chatroom I think it would be kinda cool. Also visiters to the site could get in and just chat with current Roomba owners.

Good idea but do not know if it will become popular since we are spread across the globe and not everyone may like the idea of chatting live with someone else. :wink:

I agree. It probably wouldn't be very crowded unless there was a new product launch, but there is no downside to having one available!

I will look into adding it in the very near future.

Craig

Ok, it's up and running! There is now a new icon in the user menu above:

Live Chat

For now, it's in testing, so there won't be any announcements in the main forum. I suspect it won't get much use unless there is a new and exciting announcement, but there is no harm in having it available in case anyone wants to use it!

Regards,
Craig
