I have been attempting to find a good chat window to use with my class blog and wiki but the gadgets that came with the programs were not very useful for my purposes. I may have found the solution with a program called Yaplet. Students click an icon, type in their name, and begin chatting real-time. The chat is saved and continued when a new session is begun. Now my students not only have the ability to read and respond in the comment section but in a chat window as well. And both are saved for further study and review.
