Anyone want to help test my Ajax chat (Erlang)?

Nice, but it has some issues including random disconnects.

Is it open source?

BTW, #startups on freenode is a more permanent solution for those interested in talking with other HN'ers.

Yeah, people are having fun trying to crash it. Had a unicode problem earlier (with mochijson).

It's not very full featured, but I just wanted to see how well it works with more people in it.

Any errors? Let me know.

I tried to post a comment with HTML but I just ate it without any indication.

Very nice! Look forward to hearing more about it.

I did have an issue where the server would fulfill my connection with no response data, and the client wouldn't re-open the connection to the server. This happened a few times, and it was right around the time someone was mentioning unicode, so I figure you might already be on this one.

yeah, mochijson:encode and unicode, fixing that :)

Uses MochiWeb for web server, ErlyDTL for page templating (Erlang implementation of Django Template Language).

You do not appear to limit message length, or the limit it too large.

Just set limit now to 256.

It doesn't seem to work on the iPhone.
