    I know there are limitations with the site, TS, and their integration, but I am ignorant of those issues so I'll just start demanding things until you tell me it's impossible.

    I idle on the site while at work and would like to interact more with you all but can't use TS. Some sort of chat box on the home page or a way to log into TS through the site and chat there would be great.... I'm so lonely :sad:

    There are portable versions of TS that you could use. While you might not have sound you can still use that client to chat.

    Use the IRC like everyone else at work does. That's why we have it.

    There is a IRC addon for Teamspeak. With features like:
    * Beep sounds for incoming and outgoing messages
    * Message template (now you can design it on your own)
    * Clickable links & nicks
    * Startup commands
    * Tab highlight on new message
    * Auto-reconnect
    * Commands: join, part, quit, msg, query, hop, retry, whois and many more.
    http://addons.teamspeak.com/directory/plugins/text-messaging/Internet-Relay-Chat.html

    Though the API seems dated and might not run on updated TS-server, but worth keeping an eye on if the dev comes out of hybernation.
