I think it will be cool to have a shout box on the homepage. Something to do and read while we wait for the next question to come up.

Shout; If I shout that means I will pay. Usually it means for a round of drinks.(my shout)

Shout Box ? Nuh ! don't know that one.

Hehehe, I'm sure your friends love it when you shout then ;-)

Shoutbox is a place where you can add a quick message, say hello etc...example below:

No, not a chat client. Its more like an add-on application. A box where you can write a one-liner if you want to and people can respond if they want to.

I thought that's what these comment boards were. It's like holding five or six conversations at once, but only on the topics you're interested in.

I wouldn't like it. Some people on here would become abusive even more so than just here in the comments.
