pseudo irc webchat
http://gabbly.com/
go there and in the URL window type the address of the site you want to go to, you can then talk to anyone else on that site. It doesn't support opera, which means its next to useless for most of us, but still i thought id share.

Re: pseudo irc webchat
that is seriously seriously awesome, and I dont mean awesome as in 'good', I mean awesome as in "if the interface is improved and it catches on and gets a large userbase, its a good enough idea to become the norm for browsing the web".

Re: pseudo irc webchat
tbh i expect opera/microsoft et al to rip the idea and make integrated versions of their own. I agree the idea is brilliant and brings together two relatively seperate 'cultures' on the internet beautifully, the core of the idea is there, what they need to do as nod says is develop the interface (but for something relatively young it is already rather good). Maybe in a few years we'll even see VoIP brought into it.

it's my first name.
and no i'm not related to her.
we do have the 'FBK-stadium' in my town though, named after her. it hosts one of the biggest athletics-events in the world, every year. saw Haile Gebreselassi run a WR on the double mile there some years ago (i always get free tickets for this event).
anyway, she was an ace koen. 4 times gold at the olympics in London. a bike as reward. she will be remembered.

Re: pseudo irc webchat
It's not very good. You get an icon in the status-bar that you can click to pop a Gabbly window for the current site, but as soon as you navigate away from that page (even using the links in that page) the window disappears (doesn't seem to do the framing thing that the actual Gabbly does). You also don't seem to be able to move or scale the window that pops which is somewhat frustrating.
