|
| To be populated soon! | | A number of us are idling in #communitydata on [http://www.oftc.net OFTC] (irc.oftc.net). IRC is basically a chat system that is similar to Slack in many ways (it was actually the inspiration for Slack!). |
| | |
| | To use IRC, you'll need a client. A really good one for folks new to IRC is [https://irccloud.com IRCCloud]. With IRCCloud there is a web interface as well as good Apps for iOS and Android. |
| | |
| | One limitation of IRCCloud is that, after a 1-week trial period, the system will disconnect folks every two hours. There are a couple options for this. The easiest one is subscribing to IRC cloud which costs $5/month or $50 a year. Mako or Aaron will foot the bill. The other is to connect through an IRC "bouncer." Talk to Mako about this if you're interested in this approach. He can run one for you. |
