I wanted to try an experiment to see if this would be of any use to anyone. I've created a public IRC chatroom.

For those of you not familiar with IRC, it's basically a realtime text based chat facility. Great for live discussion of topics etc.

To connect, you will need an IRC client, if you are a Windows user you can grab a copy of mIRC from http://www.mirc.com/

You will need to connect to the IRC server irc.nixhelp.org and join chatroom #HHO.

I will be idling in the chatroom 24/7, but not necessarily actually there at all times, but feel free to drop in and loiter as I am very interested in seeing how much interest there would be in this as a medium for HHO discussion.

Russ,
If it will work with the iPhone, I will be there.
I like the idea of not waiting a day to see who responds to another's questions. Instant idea sharing.

I would be interested but keep in mind Alaska time is 4 hours different than east cost time. Connecting would be informative but hard.
