I'm not much in favor of chat. I want Hubski to do some things well, and as a result, I am reticent about making it do too many different things. Feature creep can be bad.

Although I could see the benefit in chatting with hubskiers from time to time, it is a pretty big deviation from the Hubski experience. We currently can communicate via comments and mail, I'm not sure how much adding chat would improve the site, and how much it would dilute the focus.

Like sounds_sound said below, there's something nice about having a record of conversations. However, I don't want to keep chat records for a number of reasons.
