We can always chat with our AB friends on chat rooms provided by other websites.

AB chat is the least of my concerns on AB. I would like the staff to focus more on fixing the glitches here (and there are lots of them!).

Yeah it would be cool, but just like said above, there are already enough IM systems.

There used to be an AB chat, ages ago. I'm not sure what happened to it.
I usually just chat with my AB friends through email chats.

Yeah, more convenient that opening a different website for the chatrooms. Facebook and Myspace have IMing capability in the actual website. It would be nice if AB had this option as well.

It's an interesting idea. Perhaps you could just have an optional icon that someone could click on to "ring up" whatever IM you use. Even better if they had some way to anonymize it so that the person didn't learn your real IM handle, but I don't know if that's possible.
