Chat is informal, no particular structure, agenda or goal, social or professional, people come and go with no particular leader. Conferences tend to be ;-) structured, formal, have a goal and an agenda and stop when the chairman leaves. This is why I say we should be careful on naming - 'conferencing' implies a different envelope to 'chat'. Hope this helps.
