ok..just wasted two hours.. need a way to select the starting key for your keyboard so you can really rock this thing.

Yeah, definitely need a way to jump up/down an octave.

Try the top two rows of keys...

Do ya'll know about the Sugar Project's Collaborative Activities (Sugar is the UI that once was OLPC)? It uses multi-computer DBus Tubes to enable cross system activities: here's their multi-player MIDI environment where kids can jam together via each of their' computers' on screen or real MIDI devices.

Could really do with having private hidden rooms, so I can play with a few friends without having the whole world barge in.

You can do this. In the bottom left you can choose among existing rooms or create your own. If you create your own room, you have the option of making it private/hidden (although it seems like it becomes public whenever the server is reset.)

You can also instantly create your own room by adding /[roomname] to the url (although I don't know if this makes them public or private.)
