Why haven't you tried putting any ads on it like AdSense? I'm not sure if you'll make decent money that way since most of your users are probably technical oriented, but it's worth a try. If you get enough pageviews, you can also try applying to a CPM network like ValueClick where you get paid based on pageviews.

It actually has advertising which is now also matched to the chat.

Go in a channel and talk about apple or iphones etc, and the infobar above the chat will likely change to show an advert about apple.

The challenge at the moment is getting enough volume of adverts and keeping them current. I may end up dealing directly with advertiser like stumbleupon for instance do.
