Ask HN: Where do HN people hangout online?
Just wondering, is it possible to find people actively following HN on any online instant messaging platform like IRC or a web site? Are there any conveniences or common habbits you observed between communication of the users of this community?
- sim0n 15y agoGenerally just http://webetalk.com http://webetalk.com and reddit.

- samlev 15y agoI (and a few others, I think) hang out in #cobol on irc.synirc.net (which is Something Awful's "Cavern Of COBOL" channel)
- jarin 15y agoI like #cobol, even though there seems to be a surprising lack of programmer talk :D
- templaedhel 15y agoThe #startups channel in irc.freenode.net is full of HN'ers, and usually active.

- wantrepreneur 15y agoQuora is open for registrations,not sure if this was valid only out of the US,but you just have to choose "login with facebook"

- JL2010 15y agoVarious stack-exchange sites. I'm more of a hardware type so the Electrical Engineering stack-exchange is the one I frequent most.
- rokhayakebe 15y agoOn hn. This place is filled with people who love tech business and other interesting things like hiking, music, history and any other topics. It just so happens that hn is where they come to talk tech. The other places they go to hang out maybe totally outside of that. For example hn owns the vast majority of my on line time , then I spent a huge amount of time reading about religions, old scriptures etc and that has little to do w what we talk about here.
