New IRC channel for vegans!

category international | animal rights | news report author Sunday October 31, 2010 15:22author by Kruk - Anarchist Federation Report this post to the editors

IRC, Internet Relay Chat, is a real-time conversational system. On IRC there are 'virtual rooms' where people chat. Channel # vegan was registered with the IRC Indymedia network and is dedicated to all vegans, as well as people interested in animal rights or natural food.

If you just want to connect quickly to vegan chat (from any computer), use the handy web version:

Step 1: Goto https://chat.indymedia.org

**Note the 's' in 'https'

Step 2: Ignore the gratuitous black-clad imagery.

Step 3: Type in your desired nickname where it says "Nickname". Generally, people don't use their full names, for privacy reasons. IRC is kind of like the wild west. Most make up a consistent nickname, or use their first name.

Step 4: Type in the channel (chat room) that you want to talk in, where it says "Extra channels". For example, type in "vegan" to visit the #vegan channel (without the quotes).

Step 5: Click the "Chat!" button and you should be logged in. You will likely be automatically logged into the default #indymedia chat room. Note that as this room is the default, there are many folks here who aren't necessarily involved in Indymedia organizing.

Step 6: In the topleft of your window, you should see links or tabs for the other chat room(s) you specified in "Extra channels". Click on these to switch between the different rooms. Then just type in what you want to say in the lower-left of the your window.

Step 7: IRC is a great way to communicate, more fluid and informal than email. However, please think before you type; exercise caution and respect the privacy of others. Now, repeat after me:

Anything that you ever type into a computer could be seen by anyone at any point in the future.

Happy Chatting!

Alternatively you can use IRC clients (used by most users) like: Xchat, Virc, mIrc for Windows or IRSSI, Xchat for Linux.

If you get stuck add a comment and we'll help you out!

Go #vegan!
