Ah good, another chance for me to demonstrate my ignorance.
Could somebody please explain a little what you guys are talking about? 😒
IRC is Internet Relay Chat. Like the forums, but a bit more real time. The link is for the Wikipedia page on IRC.
Its an interesting read Will. It also cast some light on my ignorance 👍
Could you bullet list the main advantages of such a system of communication?
Mike
Compared to the forums? Well, there is one main advantage: How quickly you get a response. We are talking about near real time. That might or might not happen here. Also, I used to use the forums at space.com. Those are long gone. But the space channel at Freenode has been there for 8 years and and still going strong.
