At yesterday's Corante SSA conference there was an IRC backchannel where attendees where chatting about what the speaker was talking about, how the room was arranged and sharing links to topics that were mentioned.

Are people chatting along with TV shows?

I don't usually watch anything live, so I hadn't thught about this.

Might be fun to do with a nightly news program.
