Hello All, I want to develop a chat system in my php application. Here, I want after successful login,user can chat with the other users who are also logged in. What you think what should I use? wether DB or storing the data in a file. I googled for free chat. I got many such scripts,but I want to develop it myself Please help me to right logic.
I say no reason to re-invent the wheel and use a script but I wish you the best of luck in developing it yourself. Are you going to license your chat solution once it's developed for others to use?
