Hi All,

I’m building an app using restful\_authentication which I am familiar  
with. I would like to try a simple chat application so that logged in  
users can IM on the site.

I have read little about using the Juggernaut plugin and it seems  
promising. before I get going, does anyone know of another plugin or  
tutorial that covers IM specifically with restful\_authentication?

Thanks,

Dan
