I may look into setting up a simple ajax chat system.  A friend in
Vancouver show me some scripts for doing stuff with ajax, and it
looked relatively doable.

My plan will be to build this into the zapchat module.  In fact, it
was because I wanted to use ajax I haven't updated my beta release of
zapchat yet.  So perhaps sometime in the next few weeks I'll take a
stab at it.

If anyone has experience doing simple ajax stuff, and would be
interested in working with me on this, I'd appreciate the expertise,
as it will be a new venture for me.

Cheers,
Dan
