Protocols: line-by-line versus character-by-character edit

The article could mention that some protocols update conversations line-by-line (e.g IRC) while others update character-by-character (e.g. google wave, AOL chat[1], talk (software)). pgr94 (talk) 16:13, 28 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

January 2022, clean up hat notes edit

The notability tag was removed since synchronous conferencing is not merely another name for chat, but is a specific kind of chat, as opposed to asynchronous conferencing which is a closely related but different kind of chat. Also removed the multiple issues tag, by virtue of it becoming inapplicable due to the more citations needed tag becoming the sole remaining issue with the article which is worthy of a hat note. 98.178.191.34 (talk) 23:17, 14 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
