What is "chat"?
Online chat is a way of communicating by sending text messages to people in the same chat-room in real-time. Some chat rooms such as Yahoo! use both text and voice simultaneously. The oldest form of true chat rooms are the text-based variety. The most popular of this kind is Internet Relay Chat (IRC). The popularity of these kinds of chat rooms has waned over the years, and IRC's popularity has rapidly given way to instant messaging. Also a notable number of people were introduced to chat rooms from AOL and web chat sites.

There are also graphical user interface (GUI) text-based chat rooms which allow users to select an identifying icon and modify the look of their chat environment.
What is chat room (or chatroom) ?
The primary use of a chat room is to share information via
text with a group of other users. New technology has enabled the use of file
sharing and
webcams to be included
in some programs and almost all Internet chat or messaging services allow users
to display or send to each other photos of themselves.
Some people who visit chat rooms use them as a place to experience online sex,
also known as cybersex or computer love. While not physically able to see their
partner, cyber-ers apparently get stimulation by reading x-rated quotes. While
many in the media focus on this aspect of chat rooms as it certainly boosts
their ratings, it is by no means the only thing chat rooms are used for. While
many people engage in "cybersex" for many reasons, it is also true that sexual
predators use cybersex conversations as a means of identifying potential
victims.
Games are also often played in chat rooms. Historic examples are initgame, Hunt
the Wumpus on IRC or an AOL chatroom game in AOL chat rooms.
