'''Chillchat''' | '''Riverchat''' (also known as '''Chillchat''' and '''Together''') is an online chat room application created by [[Rivers Cuomo]], as a project for an online web programming class (Harvard's CS50W course, via the online course provider edX), and hosted on [[riverscuomo.com|his personal website]], beginning in July of [[2020]]. Cuomo has used the application to communicate with fans, sometimes in the form of cryptic non-sequiturs, and sometimes sharing previously-unknown Weezer-related trivia. It is speculated, though unconfirmed, that Cuomo has integrated a bot account to occasionally post replies on his behalf. The site was renamed "Chillchat" from "Riverchat" in late August of 2020. | ||

Users need an account to register and interact with other users, as well as write and receive messages, but they are allowed to read messages without one. | Chillchat is comprised of different sections with the main, and only permanent, one being "#general", but having other sections such as "#spectacularly" and "#2020-AD".
