Question Creative Misuse of Digital IO

I've been reading about how serial communications could be used for Good Things on the robot, and since I haven't figured out quite how to use the TTL/RS232 ports, I thought of writing a serial data transfer thingy for use between two IFI RCs over the Digital I/O ports. So the question is: what happens if I wire a digital IO configured for output directly to one configured for input? Does anything dangerous result? My electronics is a little shaky, so I'm not quite sure whether this might damage the RC.
