I've set up an experimental webchat at
www.kvcd.net/WebChat
You have to register there, because it's not the same database as the users in the forum. So just pick a user name ( same as the one you use in the forum if you want ), and make sure the E-Mail you provide is valid, because the system will E-Mail you back a password. Then you can log in and change your profile (password, etc. )
The chat is not a substitute for the forum. It's for quick and dirty talks
Please remember that the forums are always the best place to share information, because the data is permanent. Not like the chat rooms, where the information is lost.
Have fun!
