I frankly don't care about your personal lives (no offense ;-), but an XMPP (Jabber) server would be preferable to IRC. There are several open server implementations: jabberd14, jabberd2, and Openfire (formerly Wildfire), for starters. jabberd14: http://jabberd.org/ jabberd2: http://docs.xiaoka.com/jabberd2:start Openfire: http://www.igniterealtime.org/downloads/ In addition to a web-based chat interface, accessible without installing any software, people can connect via a number of messenger programs that they may already use (Gaim, Trillian, Spark, Adium, Google Talk, etc.). -Matt
