If people are interested, I could set up a channel on IRC for us to talk. We could also idle there and talk as we see fit and so on. Let me know if people are interested or not.

I've created and registered a channel for us on the IRC server I use. You can log on here...
http://www.utonet.org/
on the left side of the screen you'll see 'Nickname'. Type your desired nick in there and click on 'GO' It will load you on the server. Once there, just type this..
/join #UMSports
once you're there you can talk to anyone in the chan and hang out as long as you like.
EDIT:
I've just added a much easier direct link to the chat room.
http://elysium.na-systems.com/irc/index2.html
Once logged in, on the bottom right of the page is a white box, type your desired nick in there and hit enter, you now have the name you want.

I have a couple questions:
What does IRC stand for?
What is the advantage to this chat over the one that already exists?

Internet Relay Chat. Basicly its a real chat room, not just a comment area like the current chat.

what up Baloon ...
IRC is an interesting option ... I know i thought about that when thinking about chatrooms.. the disadvatage of it from an admins point of view is it cant be coded into the site ... So you have to go to additional links which does not give you that homely UM feel ...
Besides, Since i already paid for the UM-Live chatroom for the year ... I'm hoping we all get some use from it!  
But, that link is a slick idea as an additional option for chat .. and as the UM progress's, additional improvements will always be a huge part of the plan.

well, the room is there and the page can be changed to suit UM. Also, you could just have a link directed to open in a new window and it would run along side of this. That and you could also just download the program itself for free and you can join in any time you want. Neither I nor the link will be going anywhere any time soon. So if you need something, just ask. I'm always willing to help where possible.
