Pretty limited history, but some nostalgia value there. I haven't used IRC in many years, but started using bitnet relay back when I was about 15 or 16 and then moved on to irc (mostly +Amiga!/#Amiga!, +hack/#hack, used it back when all the channel numbers were just integers as well on various channels) soon after Jarkko had it up. I remember when having 50 people logged into the whole of irc (long before all the splits into EFNet and then all the others) was a really busy night. Ended up meeting a lot of cool people through irc and pissing off a bunch more as I was a bit of a troll back then (well, more of a troll than I am now), pretty stereotypical geek kid with more intelligence than wisdom.
