Neo showed me an awesome chat application provided by Meebo--it's all set up as an external link at the moment (click on the 'Chat' link on the header).
The really great thing about Meebo is that we have the option of embedding the chat box into a website as well. I want to get some folks' feedback as to the best way of implementing chat for Beat The GMAT.

I thought the poll would be something like ''Do you need chat feature on this site anyway?''
yes/no.
Ryan, dont kill me for this.

Hm...that's a good question too. 
Ryan seems to have an interesting vision around this. There are some neat social hours we could have with this, featured guest chats, teach-ins, and so forth.
The problem is I'm a little bit too busy to plan these at the moment...

I've decided to leave the chat implemented as is--for now. In the future, when I get around to building a content management system for this website, we'll have more options to smoothly integrate chat.
Hope this works!
