Chat Program

Hello everyone,

I got really bored yesterday and made a php chat program during 2nd and 6th hour at school. Its very basic and I wanted to know what features should be added. This was made to talk to friends during school so I don't want to make it really fancy. Any ideas?

http://68.103.192.2:8080/c/

About the chat:

Users are logged out after 100 seconds if they don't submit anything. Messages are deleted after 100 seconds also (so my mysql table won't be huge). Do you think this is long enough?

I don't really know if i should post this here, but its made with php and its not really a website. ??????????????????

Thanks
