Im going to be changing the chat room around on the forum. Its kinda crap and since its dependant on Flash, not really cross-device compatible. Instead Im going to be setting up an IRC channel somewhere, idk where yet, might just run our own server for it, and change the Chat Room as it is now into a Java IRC client. This way if you use multi-IM apps like Trillian, etc, you can connect in to the chat room as well easily and its more cross-device compatible since there are IRC clients for Blackberry, iPhone, Android, etc.
When this will occur, I have no idea. Prob within the next few weeks.
I would like this a lot!
Back in my early nerd days, I was a serverOp for a pretty big IRC server. I really miss those days for sure.
I also miss IRC, I used to run my own net. ah, those were the days.
