Chatrooms for teens

Does anyone know of any "safe" chatrooms where bullied teenagers can chat to others anonymously about their experiences?

My oldest who is 13 was horrendously bullied earlier this year, and he has in fact been bullied on and off throughout school because he's a sensitive, musical boy who can't do "boy" stuff very well- unlike one of his siblings!!

The actual bullying is sorted but I wondered if anyone has any experience of online peer chat rooms for teens in similar situations?

I;m quite up to speed with intenet safety etc and feel that chatting to others in a safe way online might help him feel less alone

Thanks x

maybe he could set his own web blog up a cathartic thing

he could do one on hotmail myspace

like a website - he can send to his friends - he can add pictures and stuff - or keep it completely anon if he wants
