Ask HN: Integrated chat for your web app

4 pointsfjabre2 comments

I've been looking for a way to integrate gmail/facebook style chat into our web app.

I've checked out www.cometchat.com which looks promising. Does anyone know of any other existing solutions?

Mind you I'm talking about Gmail/Facebook style chat where push is employed.. not the old school polling chat apps that a lot of 'corporate' sites still use.

Not really a chat as it is a shoutbox, but I use http://www.shoutmix.com/ in my facebook apps. Really easy to integrate.

If you want a chat between you and your users, I know that MixPanel (http://www.mixpanel.com) is using http://www.olark.com/

Inbelieve meebo offers a widget that does just what you want.
