SamePlace is a browser extension to chat with other visitors of the page you're viewing, just like in everyday life you can chat with other people in places you go to.

Usage:

Simply right-click on the page you wish to enter and choose Enter Place from the menu.

Can I keep a contact list like with other IM clients?

Yes, and if you're using an existing Jabber or GTalk account, your contact list will already be available in SamePlace.

Can I put a box on my blog/forum/site that shows how many visitors are in the place and lets one join them?

Just insert this HTML in your pages:

< div id="visitors" >
< script type="text/javascript"
src="http://www.sameplace.cc/tools/online_visitors.js.v0.3" >
< /script >
< /div >

The < div > element is not strictly necessary but will let you control the size and border of the box with CSS.

Do I have to use an account at jabber.sameplace.cc?

No, in fact you can use any Jabber or GTalk account, and if you don't have one, the configuration wizard will show you a map where you can select the server closest to you to register one.

Requirements:
Firefox

What's New in This Release:
This release is a complete rewrite, with a plugin architecture and a redesigned UI.
It has an infrastructure for hybrid Web/IM applications.
