Does live vote chess exist?

I think it would be an incredible way to learn, to have a live vote chess game - using a chatroom for instance. You'd effectively be commentating and analysing your own game.

Less skilled players could suggest moves and find why they aren't good, and see how better players approach the game. More skilled players would surely gain from not only discussing tactics with their equals, but from explaining them to the weaker players - there's nothing like having to explain something to make you understand it well yourself!

Does anything like this happen on chess.com?

http://www.chess.com/votechess/ seems like a pretty obvious suggestion but they don't seem to have any games going on that individual members can join at the present time.

All the games are going on between groups- http://www.chess.com/votechess/?keyword=&show_group_games=1

You could join a group and get exactly what you seek.

But that's online vote-chess... I guess you can discuss in the forum but that's not quite the same as it being live chat.

How often do you hang out in one of the live chat discussions here? I think the forums are a lot more lively.
