"Streaming" (API) Chat Access #7

Brain dump time.

A lot of servers have a "Main" channel, and a lot of people ask things of GMs in that channel, now if the GMs aren't around, there's really no way to capture those messages. It would be awesome if the chat could be streamed to a page, read only of course, so that GMs (and other players for that matter) can keep track of what's going on in Main (or whatever) without being in game.

Definitely relevant. I think this is the way to go. Been hearing of a lot of great experiments regarding Redis' pub/sub, gives me a chance to investigate that.
