Hey David Risley(I hope I spelled that right!) - how about making a PCMech General Discussion Chat Room? I think it would be a cool feature and bring in more traffic!

Anybody else have an opinion on this?

Excellent! Set it up! I like IRC servers set up on:
http://www.dal.net

They allow for registered users, blocking names/IPs, and a bunch of other nice features!

It's up and running now...we're trying to get enough membership together to get Chan Services. Stop by and register...and visit regularly!

We used to be on Dalnet, but they are too open, denial of service attacks has made the network almost unusable. Undernet may not have as many toys as Dalnet but you aren't going to have continuing problems connecting to a server.

If you don't have and don't want to install an IRC client, there is a web interface at www.undernet.org, just join any listed channel then type /join #pcmech. Requires Java.
