Ask HN: IRC channel for Hacker News?
7 comments
#startups is a great place to go for pre-HN feedback and the company of other HN community members.
pg should add the IRC channel connect link to the bottom so more people would know about it(+ make it easier to connect). Right now even if you know that there is an irc channel you probably don't remember where its at
I think think this should be correct: irc://chat.freenode.net/startups

He should have the mibbit widget embedded on the front page.
Why would he? It links to something he isn't familiar with, and has no control over, with, at times, heated discussions, 'bad' language, and so on. It seems people find it just fine via these threads, that come up from time to time.
http://www.chatterous.com/hnyc/ is the chatterous room for Hacker News and has hundreds of members. It also lets you hook up your GTalk, Email or Phone with the room. I prefer the GTalk integration.
PS - this question seems to come up fairly often.

No IRC integration?
Any idea which one is more active? The chatterous room or #startups?

It's dead - but the room is there for anyone.

This could be a great way to do real-time communication with other members of the community. For example, asking a quick question that doesn't really merit its own post, or casual chat about the latest posts.
