If you use OS X, try http://propaneapp.com/

I did, when I was on OSX... but now I've switched back to Linux, and kinda miss it. It would be great if I could just connect to Campfire with Pidgin, or any libpurple chat client.

There is Butane for Linux: http://github.com/ricktessner/butane

Try http://jaconda.im which does exectly what you want.

Propane doesn't support IRC/XMPP/any other group chat protocol.
