On a network of 6000+ channels, ever wondered how to find a good channel for you? But there's so MANY!! How do you choose? We have tried to make that selection easier for you!

And you don't need to start up an IRC client to use them - we put together a list of recommended channels which are easy to access using our Java chat client. These cover a broad range of channels and interests, from beginner level to jumping in with both feet.
In addition, we have featured channels of the week. These channels might cater to the needs of users who have their own special interest areas. If you own or manage a channel and have a burning desire to submit it to be featured as a channel of the week, then we welcome your enquiry.
Please feel free to take your time and browse our list of channels and archives. Explore! Meet new people! Make friends! or just blend in. The choice is up to you.
