I think the spirit of your idea is a good one. And I can attest to what you say about chat rooms, those are some horrible people (with very rare exceptions). I can't speak for everyone here because we are all different, but just speaking for myself, I can chat much better with a keyboard than with my voice normally. I think a live chat group could be interesting, but it might take some planning to make everyone comfortable.
 
I like the sound of these ideas, and there are some members here that I already text with outside of AC. I actually don't have a Skype but I do use some messaging tools like WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger.
 
In theory it's a good idea, it's just the time difference issue that's a problem, most of the folk on here are on Eastern US time which is 5 hours behind GMT (UK time), so catching each other at the same time would be tricky.
