This is a fascinating opportunity. Rev certainly has the power for a chat 
application for a major network, it's all a matter of handling the protocol 
properly. Bjornke has written a basic chat application already, but it is 
his own "protocol" and does not operate with any of the major ones out 
there.

- Yahoo a while back released an API for *plugins* for their chat client, 
but this was suspended a while ago. Your only option for Yahoo is to find 
one of the reverse-engineered APIs out there or figure it out on your own. 
As Bjornke pointed out, the legality is dubious, though many people have 
been successful at it. http://developer.yahoo.com/messenger/

- AOL has its "Open AIM" initiative, which seems a lot more welcoming.

Good luck... and should you get it working, I'm sure we'd be happy to 
publish your story in the revUp newsletter.

Hello,
 I've tossed around this idea with a few friends,
 but I wanted to see what other users thought.

Is it possible to create a custom yahoo chat client
with runrev?
Has anyone tried it yet?
