Summary
At the beginning of the chapter we saw why one can face problems when communicating with other people in a dynamic way over the Internet. We saw what the solutions for these problems are and how AJAX chat solutions can bring something new, useful, and ergonomic. After seeing some other AJAX chat implementations, we started building our own solution. Step by step we have implemented our AJAX chat solution keeping it simple, easily extensible, and modular.
After reading this chapter, you can try improving the solution, by adding new features like:
Chat rooms
Simple command lines (joining/leaving a chat room, switching between chat room)
Private messaging
