I find tokbox is a great service for video chat. But is there any other similar service for text-based chat, that provides api, so that i can manage my own users and chat participants.

Thanks

Answer 1

In another SO question somebody recommended http://www.phpfreechat.net/ but I ve no experience of using the service.

As ever Google is your friend and once you know of a service such as PHP Free Chat you can do a related search and get some other options.

You could also build a chat solution using Pusher, who I work for. We offer a number of publisher libraries and client libraries in different technologies including JavaScript. We offer presence functionality that makes building chat forums really easy which is why it s one of the big use of Pusher.

Edit

There is also CometChat which may be worth looking at.
