Hmm - apparently links in the summary aren't automatically created. Here's the referrer link example again:

Doesn't work for me in chrome. Although, I'm running the alpha for linux so that might have something to do with it. Has anybody tried it with chrome on windows?
Bummer - not working for me in Chromium (OSX) any more either. Which is odd since I did about half the development with it. I'll get that fixed soon...

> puts people into the same room based on the HTTP referrer
That's a cool feature! Unique as you say.
It's a teeeeny bit slow for me but it could be this machine (it wont play youtube vids w/o locking up anything else)

I'm aware of the excellent Mibbit, but I was shooting for something even more simple. I also have what I think is a unique feature that puts people into the same room based on the HTTP referrer. That is, if you follow this link, you'll all end up in the same chatroom:

Like I said, it's very simple by design, but please be honest with any criticism or ideas you may have. And feel free to use it too!
Thanks!
P.S. If anyone is interested, the back-end is powered by Google App Engine (Python).
