Sorry to say, but it has been tried many times.. It doesn't work..
First of all, most of the users, don't know how to go about connecting 
to a chat server..
Second.. most don't have a IRC program..
Third.. those of us who do know how, the number is quite limited, 
therefore it is not too often that we end up in the chat room at the 
same time..
3 people doesn't make for very interesting, or productive conversation.. 
(it would be rare to even have that many in the room at once)

This is the reason RDS needs to support the chat room..
But if Rob is going to do this.. IMHO, I think it would be best if it 
could be done using our very own EU designed chat server and client 
progs..
This really isn't too difficult.. the problem arises when trying to 
support other IRC clients.. like mIRC. And designing a suitable web 
based chat client... for those who don't know how and/or are not willing 
to go through the trouble of DL'ing and setting up their own client to 
connect to the server..

Is anyone willing to take this task on?
Ah he hehemm ... Kat? Ahh ah choo! Ray?!
Com'on experts.. show yer stars!!...  {:o)
