Silly name, but fun all the same ... Free web (2.0, natch) chat site that allows users to search for chat rooms based on tags or to set up their own room(s) that are either public or private.

With frames and javascript, I made a chat room system like this in....1997? I don't know the actual time, as it was when Netscape 3.0 was the standard browser, and everything's a blur of frustration and tears around that era in history.

"AOL? Is that you? It's been so long! Come in, come in. Sit by the fire and get warm. I'll get some cocoa brewing while you tell me about your travels. Really, AOL, it's nice to have you back."

Wow, there's like 2 rooms and nobody in any of them. Except somebody from the same state as me. Good idea, great execution.

hum. Metafilter Lingr has two people in it, leaving it in an open tab "to see if anyone comes along."

If one of these sites came along and thought to think "hey, I'll make this integrate with Jabber so this site isn't just yet another soon-to-be-forgotten adventure in javascript", that would be interesting.
