Alanaktion Chat

I've started yet another service, Alanaktion Chat.  It is simply a public instant messaging client with a single stream.  Users log in to view and add to the public stream, either from a web page, the Windows client, or by a mobile web device.

The only unfixed problem so far in the development is a small memory leak that occurs when the chat opens the stream to the server to check for new messages.  Even if no new messages are present, the client will load a small amount of data continuously, meaning that if the web page or Windows client is left open for a long period of time, it will use a large amount of memory and stop responding to user input.  Luckily, this is contained within the application and does not affect any other applications unless running on a very old browser.
