Our Flex chat widget now works behind firewalls
September 16th, 2007
One problem with using a Jabber-based solution for chat is that some corporate firewalls will block you. Thanks to Robert Cadena, our Flex chat widget can now communicate using HTTP binding so that firewalls are no longer an issue. You can see our list of available topics at www.chatopica.com/topics. If you have a blog and you’re interested in having chat on your site, just select one of those topics and you’ll find installation instructions.
New chat widget topics: ColdFusion, Flash, Ruby on Rails, and more…

Our Flex chat widget can now be pointed to a number of different topics besides “Flex Programming”. Check out www.chatopica.com/topics to see what we have in there so far. Instructions for embedding the chat widget on your blog are available on each topic page. Be sure to let us know if you install the chat widget on your blog so we can include your site in the list. People who have installed it so far are telling us it’s helping to drive traffic to their sites.
If you’ve already installed the WordPress chat plugin, you can now go to the configuration page and select a different topic if you want.
If there’s a topic you’d like us to add, just let me know in the comments.
Thanks,
Tom
