: The solution to this, while it might seem strange to some, is to
: go over to rec.games.mud, grab the latest list of active MUDs,
: MUSHen, MUCKs, et al, pick one, and meet there. Instant realtime
: Internet communication in a shared environ.
I run a server primarily for that purpose (gateway1.brisnet.org.au 6520). It
gives people who I share common interests with the chance to chat with me (or
each other) live, without any of the messiness imposed by IRC.
