Internet Relay Chat
WANNA CHAT???
If your answer is yes, than join #chantalkreviazuk!
We meet occasionally on Fridays at 11:00pm EST.
#chantalkreviazuk is a chat room,
and a place where
Chantal fans can meet!
The channel is on the UNDERNET.
IRC stands for Internet Relay Chat.
It's a way of chatting to other people through text.
Channels allow large group discussions, where any
number
of people can join a channel and take part
in the
current conversation. This is the way it works
on
the #chantalkreviazuk channel.
How do you get on???
well...
First of all you need an internet connection (i'm
assuming you
have one...duh.)
The other thing you'll
need is an IRC client
(a program which allows you to
use IRC).
How do I get an IRC client?
I great gal named Lisa Jones has a Bryan Adams page,
and she taught me how to get it.
For PC users, there is a good IRC client called mIRC,
which you can download by clicking here:
Download mIRC version 5.3 now
Once you have downloaded mIRC, simply go to File
Manager and double click on the filename
(mirc502s.exe). The file will then expand, and if
you then reload the drive which the file is on and go
to the directory that the file is in, you should then
find a readme file of some sort. Read this file for
installation instructions which you can use with
mIRC.
When you start up mIRC, you will be offered a list
of servers: you can choose any undernet server
to
get onto the #chantalkreviazuk channel. Most of the
servers will be listed in this format:
Undernet:US, MO, Springfield.
The ones I recommend are:
Toronto - toronto.on.ca.undernet.org
Phoenix - phoenix.az.us.undernet.org
San Diego - sandiego.ca.us.undernet.org
Chicago - chicago.il.us.undernet.org
Lowell - lowell.ma.us.undernet.org
Springfield - springfield.mo.us.undernet.org
St. Louis - stlouis.mo.us.undernet.org
Vancouver - vancouver.bc.ca.undernet.org
Salt Lake - saltlake.ut.us.undernet.org
Los Angeles - los-angeles.ca.us.undernet.org
Rock Hill - rockhill.sc.us.undernet.org
San Jose - sanjose.ca.us.undernet.org
Choose one of the above servers and press the
Connect button. Once you have connected to a
server, a box will come up and will allow you to
type in a name preceeded by a #. If you want to
join the #chantalkreviazuk channel, then type in
#chantalkreviazuk and click on the "Join" button.
OR, type this into the typing box...
/join #chantalkreviazuk
ok?
If you have any questions feel free to e-mail me.
Anyways, hope to see you there soon!
