MacRumors IRC Channel (#MacRumors)
For the past few major Apple events, we've opened Internet Relay Chat (IRC) channels to accomodate the additional traffic and discussion, with our last event in April, drawing a record crowd.
The channel will remain open year-round.
For those with their own IRC Clients, the MacRumors channel is on irc.krono.net on channel #macrumors.
For readers who are new to IRC, we offer a customized OpenMac client named MRChat. MRChat provides readers with a simple Mac OS X IRC client which will automatically connect to the proper server and channel. which can be downloaded here:
Download Link: MRChat v1.0.2
