Online chat is the social centre of the Internet. It s a great place to meet people, catch up with friends and family and to receive instant replies. Chat is online, real-time communication between two or more people. Your messages are relayed to other people chatting online and their replies are relayed back instantly. Any or all of the participants can respond with their own reply.
Some chatrooms are subject-specific while others are purely for meeting people.
As the conversation progresses, new messages are constantly contributed due to the on-going nature of live conversation. To connect to an IRC server, your computer requires IRC Client Software. This is included in Internet Explorer s Microsoft Chat, which allows you to display ongoing chats. After submitting basic details, you need to create a nickname for yourself. Give yourself a good nickname because everybody s going to see it next to your messages.
