As we've moved away from the office over the past 2 years now, it's become even more important to have a good means of interaction with our co-workers. Many of us have started late week meetings in the afternoon to just chit-chat, or talk about anything but work.
Many have online gaming hours to cut the tension and get some time "away from the desk" with their friends from work. Let me introduce you to WorkAdventure. A very cool piece of software that brings your office into a 16 bit world.
You can move close to another "player" (co-worker), and have a peer to peer talking session pop up with video and audio, and the session will drop as you walk away, just like it would in real life.
=== CORRECTIONS ===
In the video I said that MAX_PER_GROUP was the max number of users on the site, but this is actually the max number of people able to be in a Peer Group chat. The default is 4, so setting this to 100 is not encouraged.
