How much interest would there be in setting one up? I just started #bridgebase on EFnet so please come in and say hi! If there is interest I will see if I can get it set up with a couple of bots, channel operators etc.

Hi Caren,
IRC = Internet Relay Chat. A system of chat rooms. There are a number of programs that will allow you to connect to IRC. One of them is MIRC. You can download it from
http://www.mirc.com/get.html
Install it and run it. Enter your details in the boxes provided. Then click "connect to server". Click "file" then "connect to server" and choose efnet. After it has connected a box should pick up saying "Enter a channel name and click join:". Enter "#bridgebase", and you should be able to see me.

mirc is just fine caren (most prefer it) but i've used pirch for a *long* time and i like it just fine... do a google for 'pirch' or for 'chat clients' if you want to choose another
great idea dean, when are you usually there? also, thx for going EFnet and not *ahem* some others

I have much less time than I would love to, to participate, but when I do have time, I think it would very good especially for Vugraph :-)
Nice idea, Dean

It is working time in Europe To steal some minutes for reading and posting in the forum will be tolerated, but chatting might be a bit strange, at least here....

LOL Caren - you say what I think! My favorite professor used to say "If you think you have an idea and can't explain it to a barmaid - you don't have an idea!"
