I guess the itch to connect to both old friends and make new ones was too great to resist scratching. Going to the WayBack machine, I realized we had all the basic foundations available to create a new Chat application from the ashes of the old chat program we used during our Radio Bijoux days. Since we had it, we might as well USE it! It has been a few years since we last installed a chatroom system, so there were quite a few updates to the package we had. All of them making the app more more fun to use with lots of new and improved features. (There are a lot of features that we'll still need to enable if they are not already enabled at the time you read this. And MORE will continually be added and updated as time goes on...)
