Tor chat works fine for me.
Call it a hunch, but I have a bad feeling about this Bitmessage. Anyone else know anything about it?

torchat is good, but it's a chat, both users need to be online at the same time
in bitmessage this isn't needed
if you want to chat securely with someone, torchat remains the best solution

And a quick google brought this up: http://bitslog.wordpress.com/2012/11/30/bitmessage-completely-broken-crypto/
If I'm wrong, please post the links. Doesn't sound like I'll be using it though.

I'm not so expert, we should ask bitslog an updated review.
