As far as i remember you are not the first to do something like this. I will try to find the other project. You have done a good job but if you wish this to be more than a learn project i suggest you to dedicate some time to the style ;)
It was called OLark if my memory hasn't failed me. From what I remember it was semi-popular for a while but ultimately died a death of user scarcity as only the most popular websites ever had >1 active user with the program installed. Let me try find the link....

If I get time (have to concentrate mostly on job-hunting for now) I was thinking of doing a "auto-post-to-twitter" to try and pull people outside the conversation in.
Sometime in the 90s there existed a Windows application that added a chat overlay to any webpage. Users had small rectangular icons and could move around the webpage. You could also create a "bus" and drive people around the web.

Things are good, at least assuming I find a new job at some point soonish.
Let me know if you see anything and I'll grab it first!

Was this built on the latest stable release or on Zend Framework 2 beta 4?
And it's lightweight compared to Symfony, which the PHP web framework I'd previously used.
