An IRC channel is available for general discussion regarding the Homestar Runner Wiki.
| If you have an IRC client (see below for details): #hrwiki | If you don't have an IRC client or you're not sure: chat.hrwiki.org |
Weekly scheduled chats
The channel is open 24 hours a day, but it's hard to find other people in there at random times. We hold a regularly scheduled chat each week where we discuss the latest Homestar Runner toons and whatever else catches our interest.
- Mondays, 5:00–9:00 pm ET / 2:00–6:00 pm PT
(21:00–1:00 UTC from first Sunday in April through last Sunday in October)
(22:00–2:00 UTC otherwise)
To convert the time above to your local time:
- Click here to open the World Time Server.
- Choose your time zone from the drop-down list in the middle of the page.
IRC clients
An IRC client is a program you can use to connect to any IRC chat channel. Popular IRC clients include:
- ChatZilla (open source) — ChatZilla is an IRC client extension for most Mozilla-based browsers (Mozilla App Suite, Mozilla Firefox, etc).
- Gaim (open source) — Gaim can connect to multiple chat networks (including AIM, ICQ, IRC, MSN Messenger, Yahoo! Messenger). It also works on many different operating systems (Windows, Linux, Mac, etc).
- mIRC (commercial) — mIRC is one of the most popular IRC clients with a lot of great features.
- Trillian (commercial) — Trillian connects to multiple chat networks (including AIM, ICQ, IRC, MSN Messenger, Yahoo! Messenger). It has more features than Gaim, but only works in Windows.
- X-Chat (open source) — X-Chat is a great multiplatform IRC client, completely free for Linux, shareware for Windows but you can still download the source and compile it yourself.
