i recommend athena for macs, xchat for X windows, and pirch for ms windows. alternatively IM clients are beginning to territorialize irc networks, FIRE and Trillian both can do irc. as an old irc user, i recognize this as the second coming of aol to irc, but such is life.

and hence we see a rise in kickbots and +invite only channels, but just like other places on the net I wonder if those 'gated communities' really are a good solution. Frank. -- Fragments Blog: http://fragment.nl/ Cyberculture Resources: http://fragment.nl/resources/
