Might be a good way to get instantaneous advice and have real-time conversations with other members. jacko Senior Member Username: jacko Post Number: 1337 Registered: 10-2002 Posted on Sunday, September 16, 2007 - 4:49 am:    i have no idea what IRC is.

It's free, simple, and independent. It is somewhat like instant messengers (AIM, Yahoo!, MSN), but better in many regards. In order to use, you will need an IRC client (MIRC, XChat, IRCSS, etc). There is also a firefox extension available: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/16 As an example, you can connect to the server irc.freenode.net and join the channel #alembic (command: /join #alembic) which I have set up for people to check out. If you want to know more, wikipedia is great.

If you use macos or linux, xchat is the best. There's also a firefox extension that's pretty good so you can use your browser.
