==IRC== | |||
We now have an IRC channel on the freenode network. IRC stands for ''Internet Relay Chat'' and allows instantaneous chatting (live!) with other people on Linguifex. | |||
Think of the channel as a more relaxed, global talk page with live discourse. | |||
To join you must first have an [[w:Comparison_of_Internet_Relay_Chat_clients|IRC client]]. There are many desktop clients available, some of the most famous being: mIRC, ChatZilla, and XChat; there are also many web clients that run in your browser, [http://webchat.freenode.net/ freenode webchat], and [https://kiwiirc.com/client KiwiIRC] to name two. | |||
:'''1'''. Please connect with your client to the network [irc://chat.freenode.net chat.freenode.net] using port 6667 | |||
:'''2'''. If you did not chose a channel to join in the previous step, type '''/join #linguifex''' at the prompt (this will make you join our channel) | |||
:'''3'''. Chat to your hearts delight! | |||
''PS. We recommend that you register with the same username as on Linguifex to avoid confusion and any possible disputes. This can be done by typing /msg NickServ register '''password your@email.com'''. Do '''not''' reuse your wiki-password!'' | |||
