So, a lot of us are at our desks all day, and a lot of people don't like a lack of clickable links in the live chat, so I have made an alternative.
IRC is a chat system that has been around forever, and is nothing like what they describe here
So, first you need an IRC client, there are a bunch of options here, at work I use the free version of Trillian http://www.trillian.im/ with the IRC plug in. If you do a google search for "IRC Client" you will find a bunch, and easily find one for whatever OS you use.
When you open it up you will need to connect to an IRC server. The one I am using is:
irc.505lusers.com:7667
You will then need to join the channel #POP
A super easy way to get in is to use http://02.chat.mibbit.com/ and fill in the server name, your nickname and the channel name. It should automatically launch and put you in.
Give it a shot, it cost nothing to set up, and I think it will be a good place for regular chatting and live chatting during the cast.
