I don:t think we will need real-time chat at all as TW is about knowledge exchange and information which is usually not that time critical. A real forum would support way better search capabilities as topics are split up.
If we really want to chat like in a hangout I think a classic IRC (maybe with a webinterface for those without clients) would be the best option as anybody may participate whenever they want. My experience from i.e. WhatsApp groups is the big problem of noise created when the number of people grows beyond a specific threshold (~20). One can mute the chat but nonetheless messages are coming in and you loose track. With IRC you just don't start the client if you don't want to read it. Plus it would be better for privacy as nobody has to share stuff like their phone number if they don't want to. Just my two cents.
