IRC Task
I downloaded mIRC and installed it on my computer.
I managed to connect to the AustNet channel via one of the UK servers and one of the Singapore servers. None of the others seem to get me connected.
I tried a few other channels, mainly beginner chats. I found that it was very primitive and hard to use. It was very hard to see which person was saying what as the type looked all the same. There was no font or colour differentiation as with ICQ/MSN etc.
This is a good concept for chatting to a large group of people or for meeting new people, however these days Yahoo and MSN chat rooms are quite advanced and a little easier to use.
I prefer using MSN, as i generally do not speak in large chat rooms, and when i do, it is usually on Yahoo. MSN suits me as i chat one on one with whoever i need to, and should i need to talk to more people, i can ad them into the conversation.
