Internet Relay Chat (IRC) is a real-time text communications protocol. IRC uses a client/server model. IRC clients are applications that a user can install on their system (or run via a web site). Client applications to other clients via the server. IRC is designed for group discussion / forums and is organized into groups called called channels. It also allows for direct / personal messaging between connected users.
