This posting is to invite radio entusiasts to investigate Internet
Relay Chat (IRC), a free realtime multi-user chat medium that allows
users to connect to a network of servers and chat in realtime with
other users connected to any of the servers on the same network.


It's also been obsoleted by Jabber and it's Multiuser Chat.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jabber.


Jabber and IRC are two entirely different animals. Jabber is an
instant messenging protocol. Not even the best of those currently
available (I'd say Trillian deserves that title). Yes, it has
multiuser chat enabled - ICQ had that ten years ago - but it is still
an instant messenger whose group chatting pales in comparison to IRC.

IRC chatrooms are no sweat for webtv,I can,and once in a while do get to
them with impunity.Don't have to worry about computer viruses either,no
hard drive to infect.However,with my computer,I know what not to go to.
