There is the IRC chat room, but like I've mentioned before it almost always barren. Save for the odd soul that may wander in.

Perhaps FlashChat would be more successful since those that access the site here would only have to click on a seperate section of the same site instead of using a seperate program(other than their web browser) to perform this type of interactivity. considering that the site will soon boast Flash anyways, this is not such a big deal as far as development goes.
