  There are litterly no no means to have a live conversation with visitors. By adding a chatter box or a Im box you would be able to talk with readers in realtime, thus making every blog more dynamic. I had this feature in my last blog and have been missing it for the last 3 yrs.

  Are there any plans to do anything like this? I suppose the problem lies in the lack of flash support but hasn’t flash been made more secure since the myspace incident? Should it be allowed by now?

  Post if you agree with this or are a staff member who knows for sure there is something in the works. Thx!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  A native WordPress chat (like the one Facebook has) is better. I think this is a much sought after feature for long time,

  @arifsali
  There are currently 4 kinds of chatboxes that we can use on wordpress.com blogs.Is there some special “feature” that those 4 chatbox widgets which we can have up and running in moments that you consider to be lacking?
