As a SysOp then and a webmaster now what I miss the most is having someone phone my number I hear the phone and they basically log into my computer. In real time you see everything. Then you get a chat request and can talk to your user. That person finishes and someone else calls. With websites now you miss that shared experience them browsing/you seeing someone browsing out of the corner of your eye
