I think in some ways it would be awesome, but honestly don't know. I guess we could try it for a while, if it doesn't fly, then could stop it? Not sure?

No I am unsure too - But the hack is going to take some modifications the rollback would be - well work :o Let us see if any one else wants it, if not we drop it.

couldn't hurt at all to have one. If it doesn't work like kim said we can ditch it. I can be used for quick attention getting,announcements, small chit chat, and etc.

For that matter, could be a good marketing tool. *shrug* Shouts for the good posts.
