If you're at work, or anywhere else where you have a LAN, try this out

1 - make a file called chat.txt

2 - set Configure > Preferences > File > "When files are modified by another process" - Auto reload

3 - Arrange for you and your friends to open the same file at the same time, and then chat away - every time you press save, everybody's copy will be updated
