what's your opinion of adding a chat option
i think it's a great idea to improve our new languages by sharing

My chatting experiences on other language learning sites have been negative. Too few people actually interested in learning. Without moderation/guidance/direction it ends up being the same few people saying the same old things = a social network. We already have the option of discussing lessons and/or posting on one another's threads..
Sounds like it could be a good idea, but there are a couple places it could fail. Like a couple other people said, it could attract perverts/spambots/etcetera, but it could be very helpful. I'd like it if it was more geared towards a pen pal option; I'm learning Spanish and someone else is learning English, so we chat and correct each other.

I think it's a good idea, but only if we can chat with our friends, and of coarse if french, right?

Yea. What if the chatting can only be designated to one's friends within the duolingo, so that spambots and pervs will not have access to chatting? Is this is a possibility?
