Best way to embed a live chat on a webpage?
« on: October 17, 2013, 09:01 PM »
I'm looking for really nice, convenient ways (for the end-user) to embed a live chat inside a webpage.  Let's say the page has two parts, like frames...one frame is showing a live video stream, and the other frame is a live chat.  What's a good way to do that?

Ideally, people would be able to participate in the chat with their desktop/laptop, but also mobile devices (apple, android).  Minimal/none of the annoyances of registration, logins, etc.

We use mibbit for the donationcoder irc chat.  It's where you go if you click the "chat" button above.
