I've just added in "replies." Now you can get someone's attention by writing their name with a '@' sign in front of it (just like Twitter). That person will see your message highlighted in yellow.

I've been trying to track down a bug: If I have multiple windows open on the chat refreshing at different rates now and then one of the windows will miss a single post. It's rare, but definitely not ideal. If anyone has some insight post it here and I'll take a closer look when I can. I don't think it's a server-side bug, I think it's something wrong with how I'm adding child elements to the page... Maybe. And if so, it's in the JavaScript.
Other than that... friendly QBN chat morning post bump.
- why does it refresh when you submit a post? that's crap dudejadrian_uk

^ this man is genius.

@jadrian_uk: Was a flaw at first, but now allows me to put totally updated code on server and everyone gets updated as soon as they post. So it made upgrades painless even while people are using the site. I've figured out a better way to do this now without having it always refresh (and still allow total upgrades on the fly) but no time right now to implement it.

It's probably worth mentioning if Stewdio hasn't already that the @set thing is case sensitive...

@Stewdio, not sure if you've covered it anywhere else, but congrats on your Windmaker piece being in the MoMa 'Talk to Me' exhibition.
A couple of my friends have work in it too, might need to make a trip to NYC to see it all

Stewdio - thought of a feature - could you maybe add a section at the top that says "Current Users" that grabs the screen names entered, and includes a color next to them? That might be kind of cool, especially to see who is still active on the page if their comments have not been posted in a few minutes.

Just added a quick fix: user names at the top. This is so not elegant, but it was a quick and dirty hack. Names will remain in that list until their last post gets bumped off the stack. (So 100 posts later.) Again, not elegant, but it's a step in the right direction. Have to run, otherwise I'd work on it more.

The chat is like the best thread on QBN.
