There are many ways to use IRC, such as downloading the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/16 ChatZilla add-on] for the FireFox web browser.

Once the add on is installed open it from the Tools ~~Menu of FF~~.

# You'll have to restart Firefox as part of the process of installing ChatZilla.

~~(Could someone test what it does the first time, before you've told it your nick name?)~~

# Once the add on is installed, you open it from the Firefox '''Tools''' menu.

~~It will open a new window with some text~~. Click "freenode" in the available networks.

# A separate ChatZilla window will be opened.

It will take a ~~second~~ to connect ~~and text will scroll on your screen~~.

~~Type /~~j ~~#Sugar~~

# Click "freenode" in the list of available networks. (It will take a few seconds to connect.)

# Join a channel, e.g., sugar or sugar-meeting, from the Join-channel option under the '''IRC''' menu. (Ctrl-j is a keyboard shortcut for joining a channel.)

You will now see a list of people in the ~~Sugar~~ room. Say Hello and join the conversation!

You will now see a list of people (listed in the left pane of the window) in the chat room. Say Hello (by typing in the field at the bottom of the window) and join the conversation!

* The Sugar channel is active 24/7.

* The Sugar-meetings channel is for scheduled meetings.
