Okay, I set up and registered the channel. The channel is #Iroko and it is on irc.rizon.net servers.
To get to it you need a client such as mIRC or IceChat. I use IceChat because it is free. mIRC is shareware and asks that you only use it for a month and then pay (I hear you can keep using after the 30 days though). You can get IceChat here:
http://www.icechat.net/site/ I reccomend version 5.5 of IceChat because i am sure it works =P
So, if you want, you can download a client and install it onto your computer. When it is installed, open it and go to the top where File or Main is. Under that there should be an option to connect. When you do that it will ask for some things, like which server etc. You should enter irc.rizon.net in the server. Next click connect and wait for a couple seconds untill you connect. Then in the text bar at the bottom, type /j iroko
or /join #iroko
either should work.
If you get lots of people the channel should help to coordinate things. Also it is good for quick meetings etc.
Good luck! I hope you can get it to work! =)
also with IceChat, you sould disable the smilies because they are horribly ugly!! =P
I hope this will help your site! =)
