    I've voted no, I think people would use that and the Shoutbox, and they would be ghost towns. It was cool in it's time, but I don't see it working again. That time was a different era for the interwebs.

    Maybe if each division of boards had its own shoutbox.

    Or if just one shoutbox appeared on every forum page, so someone in GD could talk to someone in the Display Adapters forum.

    I'd like it if FM had channels where anyone could broadcast what they were doing. Like justin.tv, but for Onions. Dozens could logon and watch Quad or someone stressing some kickass hardware. They could talk through what they're doing, and everyone could post questions and comments.

    Why not put Shoutbox in the RC?
