IRC post
Hey, peeps!
As I mentioned in the initial lecture for the Freshers, we have an (well, many) IRC chatroom amongst other cool stuff! IRC is an old school communication platform where many of the best programmers still hang out, us included of course. I'm neanias on IRC. Here are some links:
IRC: imaginarynet#compsoc (There's also freenode#compsoc-uk)
http://imaginarynet.uk/
Slack: (This is restricted to .ed.ac.uk email addresses.)
https://compsoc.slack.com
TARDIS: (The student-run servers, best place is imaginarynet#tardis)
http://wiki.tardis.ed.ac.uk/index.php/Main_Page
We have an IRC <-> Slack bridge set up, so if you're not entirely comfortable with IRC, you can just chill in Slack and chat with us in IRC through that. TARDIS also has an IRC web client, Shout, so you can hop in and out easily without missing any messages. Shout works in the same way as something called a bouncer, so it stays online in IRC for you, even when you're offline. Come and say hi!
