ORLY?
I've been away, because I've gotten sucked back into IRC. I never thought it could happen again, but it did. And, well... there I am. I have some amusing things to say about it all, which I will try to mention later. Among the most amusing is that I was made a channel op tonight, for no real reason other than that I seem to have a sense of humor that one of the other ops likes. Granted, not on the most wild-western network, but still.

LOL! The last time I did IRC was more than ten years ago. I was totally addicted. I had a lot of fun chatting with a few folks who were in the States. I was in Hong Kong at the time.
ReplyDeleteI might have tried to do it again a couple of years ago. The channel I used to "hang out" was gone and so I felt a little lost. After a few minutes, I gave up and un-installed mIRC.
Hey Martian,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment, I have only just gotten back and seen it. Made my day, thanks again. Sorry but whats a IRC? I am intrigued.

Heh, yeah, Tiny, it's ridiculous. And weird. Years ago I used to be on EFnet, but that place is serious wild-west now...
ReplyDeleteKelly, IRC is "Internet Relay Chat." It's a live, interactive chat system that people all over the world use. It's been around for ages, and like Tiny said, it is *very* addictive. If you want to try it out, install the mIRC program (I think it's free) and have at it :)
When I think about it now, it's really silly that I could be that addicted to IRC. I had little in common with the people there. If you are interested, I wrote a post about IRC a while ago.
