Gotcha,<br><br>Im at a library, so it's blocked. I guess.<br><br>I think it's that messy basic webpage that has all the users listed on the right and an open chat. ...an always on chat room.<br><br>.... argh, more learning.<br>
I'll jump on when i get to a different internet connection :)<br><br>and Yes, am old enough to remember the days before the internet, when a
library was used to look at books. (i had an 'Alex' computer, and used Toronto Freenet with dialup, way back when) ....<br><br>...and 2 separate IRC channels? talking in circles? Look forward to it :) Much fun i imagine. ... and some laugh at my DOS .bat file :-) ... archaic, but it works :)<br>

</div></div>Chatzilla is a Firefox extension that serves as an IRC client.<br>
Because Chatzilla is so easy to use, I have (recently) become a<br>
regular on IRC.<br>
<br>
The IRC channel is #osm and it's on <a href="http://irc.oftc.net" target="_blank">irc.oftc.net</a> Here are some<br>
general instructions for IRC, though instead of freenode, you would<br>
enter "/server <a href="http://irc.oftc.net" target="_blank">irc.oftc.net</a>"<br>
