Hi
What do you understand by visual features? Do you want to write a Tk interface, or a Win32::GUI? Or is a web browser sufficient? (which is in most cases, certainly in a quick win situation)
In case of just a web interface, I suggest looking at the code of the perlmonks site itself? It has a chatbox and as far as I can see, it's code is freely available.
I hope this helps
