Chatter in Visual force

So I was told that Chatter does not work with Visual force I wanted to know if anyone had a work around for this or was able to get it to work any hints to point me in the right direction would be great?

 

 

Sincerely,

Chatter works fine in Visualforce but there is as of yet no way to automatically embed the Chatter bar into a page.

Yea I am looking for a way to have it show on my visual force page I knew it worked as I was getting the updates but I can't see it.

Chatter components for Visualforce are coming in Winter '11, to be released in October. Stay tuned!

Ok thanks I look forward to that enhancement.

Also, if you can't wait, you can add the Chatter bar to a Visualforce page now. Simply create a standard page, give it a blank page layout and add a Visualforce page to it. The standard page will include the Chatter bar, and the rest of the layout is your Visualforce page. 

 

It is a workaround, yes, but it works for now.

Make sure you update your XML for the page in your IDE to meta version 20.0
