Straight Dope IRC?

So what do you guys think? You could embed PJIRC on a web page on the site, point it to and irc chatroom and have a forum chatroom. Albeit 10 years late

It’d be easy to configure. I could set up a demo tomorrow.

I’m pretty sure it’s not going to happen – it often causes a site to be classified as social networking, which will get it blocked on many office systems. We have a whole lot of people who read the Dope at work.

Ahh I see, not a good idea then.
