Yes I also like the idea of an archive. I don't have regular computer
access, and I don't type fast enough to keep up with an on-line chat.

hello,
i took an agroecology course online and we used a chat feature during it. we
had a regular schedule for discussion of various topics and often websites
or other suggested readings before hand. the chats ended up being really
great. we would talk and sometimes it would go on for hours and hours. it
was a great feature, but mostly i think because of an organized schedule of
topics.
also, it was a different system, but one of the interesting things about it
was that chats could be saved and other related documents could be posted
and accessed by people and all of it could be viewed later as well, like an
archives.
