@Shpigford what have you tried so far?

Off the top of my head:
- @tlkio (looks down right now)
- http://chat.messageme.com/
- Campfire?
- Hip?

@mattsteeele http://book.sjsa.ab.ca/

@mattsteeele I use http://issuu.com/

@kylefox we do! I really like @SlackHQ too, but Campfire has this certain whimsy that I love.

Still my favorite @37signals Campfire feature:

Great read: how many new customers did @Shpigford get from his deal with @buffer (and 30,000 visitors?) http://buff.ly/1uBbHwp
