What is Campfire?
Campfire is a web-based group chat tool that lets you set up password-protected chat rooms in just seconds. Invite a client, colleague, or vendor to chat, collaborate, and make decisions. Link to a room on your intranet for internal communications.
Nothing to install
It’s elegant, easy, and web-based. You don’t need to download, install, or configure anything (no IT department required!). All you need is a web browser and an internet connection. It’s as simple as visiting a web page. iPhone compatible too.
“A godsend for groups who need to chat without wrangling with IM clients & services.” 
Better than IM
Instant messaging is great for one-on-one chats, but it’s not ideal for groups of three or more. Further, if you are on AIM and your co-worker is on MSN you can’t chat. Campfire is network-agnostic and optimized for teams and groups.
Safe, private, secure
Your Campfire chats are password protected and safe from prying eyes. You decide who you invite. You set up the rooms. You specify who can see which rooms. Plus and Premium accounts also include SSL security (the same as online banks).
Basecamp integration
Use Campfire with Basecamp, the leading web-based project collaboration tool.
Live image previews
Upload a GIF, JPG, or PNG, and it shows up right in the chat room.
Unlimited chat rooms
Create an unlimited number of chat rooms to collaborate with your team.
Jump back in time
Read past chat transcripts anytime you want. Campfire keeps a history.
