Why don't we try doing something dead-simple? Let's start an AIM chatroom called "thebenheckchatroom" and see if anyone uses it.

I'm pretty sure IRC was attempted at one point, but it failed for some reason or another.

http://tinychat.com/thebenheckchatroom" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
This could work too, and it doesn't require a AIM username.

I think the old IRC room fell into disuse because almost everybody used a really terrible Java client back in the day.

The only problem with using a chat system for quick Q&A is there's no decent archive of it, so we'd likely wind up with a steady flow of people asking the same questions over and over again.

I guess. but if we ask the question to (insert name here). He could answer and post to his thread.
The repeted question goes away.

Right, because the questions are never asked more than once. :roll:
