IRC chatroom for qatarliving
hey everyone, yesterday i joined the chatbox and it really looks old, and refreshes the page every like 5 seconds? i say we make a nice IRC channel so we can all chat much more easily, and more of the members will be joining, the problem is that lots of people don't have mIRC for windows or xchat, for those who don't have those clients there can be a nice IRC applet that can be based on Java.. most of our browsers support java these days.. the channel can be "#qatarliving" on one of the most famous IRC servers... what do you all think?
yea it is a very good effort by Qatari but the problem is lots of times i see alot of people online but no one in the chatbox, only some actually use it and if there'll be an applet more people will be using it, i believe there are open source IRC applets...
Let it be #qatarliving on Equinix's network, the EFnet [:Current global users 75857, max 87288]. I'm always on the #help channel there anyways, so yeah can join in. But the main thing is integrating that with a java interface into this site. Cuz like most of the people don't have or do not know anything about IRC clients. So they need a java interface here and only Qatari can do that. Plus, as you might already know, Java is a resource hog. I think its a pretty good effort by Qatari to get the chatroom at the first place. Basically its like a huge shoutbox.
i see no one's answering
