Like Facebook, Orkut, if we have a chat facility in our forum, it will be very much easier to provide solutions directly by interacting with each other.
Knowledge sharing could be much more easier.
Any idea to implement the chat feature in future ?

If an user need instant,immediate assistant like:
* Our SQL Server is down.What to do?
or
* Our system is hacked.What must we do?
kinda instant-need of questions can be asked through a Live Chat.It might be useful.

As far as chatting directly, it does not need to be done through the web site's server.

I sometimes think it would be interesting to do a video chat just to chat and such, but I am reluctant to spend my time trying to help in that manner. I did try helping another member of this web site and he kept me on the phone for hours (literally hours) while he worked. I was unable to follow what he was doing and he usually would not listen to what I said so it was a waste of time. Our phone bill for the month was going to be a few hundred dollars but we called the phone company and made arrangements. I now don't answer the phone when the guy calls.
The critical question is who wants to do this; the person that wants to help or the person trying to get help. I think that people trying to get help is much more likely to want to do a chat to get help. The people trying to help will likely learn to avoid it and won't enjoy the experience if they are put in a situation where they have to say no. I know from experience that there are people that just won't take a hint.
