Instant Messaging instead of Message facility in mylot !

yes, i think that should be a good idea! but i think the reason mylot will hesitate is because then members will interact with each other via that facility rather than on the common forums, atleast to a certain extent, may be 10% but that means huge losses for the company right! but i think they should come up with something as u sugggested

yes its best..

I think your suggestion is superb. Mylot should strongly encourage this. Onlt negative aspect that I may think of is that people may start spending too much time in that and so mylot may have reduced income from the discussions. But it is a innovative suggestion nevertheless.
