I try to provide all the directions necessary to join in the email
announcements.
This is the link to the Mibbit webchat interface
http://tinyurl.com/MondayNightChat
If that doesn't work and you use Firefox, install Chatzilla
and then click on:
irc://irc.freenode.net/#SeattleRobotics
If you are using a Mac or not using Firefox, then there are other software
choices. (the first link for the webchat should work)
mIRC is the windows "standard" it isn't free, but it works.
colloquy for the Mac or iPhone or iPod touch works well for Apple branded
products.
for linux: xchat, irssi, bitchx and others work.
there is an irc client for Java based phones including the Blackberry if that is
your taste. or upIRC for Palm Pilots that have a network interface.
