I saw it a few days back. Go to yahoo messenger ( might not work on multi-email clients ), go to Regional->India->any room. Now after entering the room, type "/join bhubaneshwar:1" without the quotes in the public message writting area. Press enter. This will take you to a hidden room of BHUBANESWAR which is not listed in the room list.

Mark the difference, actauall spelling is BHUBANESWAR, but you have to type bhubaneshwar. There are more rooms also starting :1 to 2,3......

I want to know, why & who is this room hidden ? Has Yahoo created it or someone else ? Why is it not on the room list ?
