Gitchi is free Chrome extension which you can use to instantly turn pull request comments into chat. Basically, what it does is that it consolidates all the comments from currently opened pull request page into a chat like interface. It needs access to your GitHub account and then you can see the chat conversation popup. You can post your own comment there by simply sending message in to the chat window. The comments appear in chronological order and you are allowed to scroll to the end and switch between the different tabs which represent a file in the repo.
