rssi is the way to go as Mackenzie stated. The benefit of Irssi is, that it runs on a web server so you seem online at all times even if you (for some obscure reason!) get up and go out or even shut your cpu. So whenerver you log on again, you can see everything that has been discussed while you were away. Something you won’t achieve with ChatZilla or Mirc (at least you didn’t when I last checked).

Been as what no si msn ?

Is it possible in some way to embed an iRC chat into a wordpress page?

(I’m thinking of a Java application or something, but I don’t know where to look).

Maybe this is a hint for a future post

i know that irrsi is running in a cocoa version, but i also like colloquy for mac (free) and tried snak but didn’t want to shell out 30 bucks for an irc client…

No hard feelings, I meant old-school in a good way.
I wouldn’t take the time to write a negative comment on someone’s blog… what’s the point?

IRC is old-school, and I was nostalgically remembering my university days of BBSing and owning a beeper.

Just because you don’t use it doesn’t mean that others don’t use it too. IRC is still hugely popular by a LOT of people and this post was actually requested by a MakeUseOf reader.

The world would be very boring if we were all the same.

I don’t know if there was an issue with ChatZilla or just something I did wrong, but /connect did not seem to work for me. I’ll take a look at Irssi.

idd, that’s a feature I didn’t know irssi had.. I’ve only tried using it on Linux, but as I’ve grown so used to mIRC like clients, it was kinda hard to change. However, I’ve got my own bouncer running, so I at least don’t need to remember all the channels, I’m usually idling in and get offline queries as soon as I log in and can log in to the same account from multiple machines, etc :p

Been using irc since ‘93 and I still take it as the best way to keep in touch with friends. Twitter, Facebook, Messenger and such services are neat, but nothing really beats IRC in flexibility, real-timeness and, really, easiness.

Oh, and instead of using /server, why not use /connect? /connect doesn’t disconnect you from the other servers you’re on. /server kicks you off the current one.

The only IRC client I use is irssi. I’ve been on irc.freenode.net almost all day of almost every day of the last two years.

I’ve been using IRC ever since I started online gaming back in 2002 using the Quakenet. I’m still idling there whenever my Computer is running, as it’s still the first program I start when it has booted
Personally, I actually prefer IRC with mIRC over ICQ, MSN, AIM and the other Instant Messenger Protocols and Clients I use.
