A very basic Express and Socket.io chat room app with a layout based on HTML5 Boilerplate. This was created so I could learn Socket.io. The chat lacks flood control or other administrative features you would want in a real web app. Starter code is from gaarf's express-boilerplate

• client-side javascript in public/javascripts/chat.js
• server-side javascript in app.js
• HTML in views/index.ejs and views/layout.ejs

• make sure node.js is installed
• copy files to server, cd to sockschat directory.
• run # node app.js
• open up http://yourdomain:3000 in a browser.

• Only tested in Chrome
• Socket.io is really fun to use and Express makes a lot of sense.
