This just in: some unknown developer has released a "chat-only" Direct Connect client. What is Direct Connect you ask? Well, check here and here. Or maybe you could even browse to his site and find out what's going on.

Oh, and if you ever figure out who this mysterious new face is, be sure to let him know that his hard work is very much appreciated. I know I'll let him know how much I appreciate him. So what are you waiting for? Download it and try it!
