New Live Chat

I've justed added a live-chat feature to the site, called "Tribune". It pretty much works just like any other chatroom-type program. You can see the whole chatroom by clicking on the "Tribune" link up at the top. Or, you can see the latest posts in the little block on the bottom-left of the home page.

I don't know how useful this will really be (for contacting people, it is probably still best to use the "Contact" tab in a person's profile (Select "User list" from the menu, choose the person you want to send an email to, select the "Contact" tab, and type in your message). But, I thought that in the times when it would be nicer to be able to chat in a more interactive way with someone (say, if you were needing to collaborate on a project, or something), then the Tribune will be a nice way of doing that.

Go ahead and test it out, and let me know if you have any difficulties!

EDIT: Please not that you need to be logged-in in order to use (or even see) the Tribune chat. This is for security purposes...anonymous internet users don't need to be viewing our chats.
