Valve have just launched the Steam Community Beta. It's kind of like Xbox Live but free and for your PC. Not to mention there are 17 million users around the world.
With Steam Communities you can:
* Easily see your friends online
* Schedule group events
* Create a SteamID user profile
* Create and join groups
* Access Steam from within any game
* Track gameplay stats
* New chat rooms and game lobbies
* Voice chat in-game or out
There are new features like one click matchmaking, organising matches, chat rooms and extremely detailed statistics on your profile page.
If you're a Steam user go into your Steam settings then under 'beta participation' select 'Steam Community'. Once that's set up visit the GBAtemp Community page to join the group!

Tip: Valve's servers are getting a flogging at the moment, if you have troubles signing up through Steam (or you click join on the gbatemp page and nothing happens) close down steam and make sure it's not running in the background. Then visit the Steam Community website and sign in, then visit GBAtemp's page and click join. It should work fine if Steam is completely shut down.
Note: If you are signed in to communities on steam you will be signed out on your web browser. Shut down Steam to sign in with your browser.
