I've added information on the UKHA# IRC (Internet Relay Chat) channel to the site. There are usually 4 or 5 people in the chat at any one time...
IRC is an excellent medium for real-time communications - whatever the nature. The channel #UKHA exists on the Nixhelp.org IRC Network. Normally there are at least 4 or 5 people chatting away. Nixhelp, formed just under 12 months consists of 6 IRC servers, 3 of these in the UK, 2 in the US and one in the Netherlands. These can be accessed by pointing your IRC client at irc.nixhelp.org. (this will provide a random server). Alternatively, select one from the list below...
UK Servers
uk2.nixhelp.org
uk3.nixhelp.org
eu.nixhelp.org
Dutch Server
nl.nixhelp.org
US Servers
