New feature - chat's back!

Due to popular demand, the chat feature is back. I'm using some brand new software from Meebo, who authored the wonderful Meebo Me widget that I've been using here for the past few months for instant messaging. Just click on the new link in the sidebar, the Meebo Room will open and you'll be all set!

Note that the feature is very new and it's likely that bugs remain, so please accept my apologies if there are any hiccups in the service. Other than that proviso, I hope you enjoy it and are polite to everyone you meet there. I'll be popping in whenever I'm able.
