Chatrooms are places where multiple users can communicate online and talk about a specific topic.

Chatrooms are places where multiple users can communicate online and talk about a specific topic. Chatrooms usually provide the option to send messages that all users (from the chatroom) will see, as well as see a list of all users and their status. Often the chatrooms provide the option for personal messages - you can select a user from the chatroom user list, and send a message only to that user.
