Somewhere to chat

Hi All,

Is anyone aware of a group that is just for chat?   That could be used like the old activity pages?

I find myself constrained to trying to stay on topic and thus also not confident enough to do anything but discussing in English.   

I'm looking for a way to get back to exchanging inconsequential comments about everything and anything with the community  here. I liked the activity stream thing when it was really busy at the beginning.
