<p>If you haven't used IRC before, check <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_IRC_clients">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_IRC_clients »</a> for a helpful list of IRC clients. Alternatively, you could also use this <a href="http://java.freenode.net/index.php?channel=android-dev">web interface »</a>, which does not require any installation, to join discussions on the Android IRC channels. </p>

<p>Here are some tips for using IRC:</h4>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li>Set your nickname before you join the channel.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Registering your nickname prevents others from using your nickname or impersonating you later:
|
||
|
|
<pre class="no-pretty-print" style="width:50%;">/nick <yournickname>
|
||
|
|
/msg nickserv register <password> <email></pre>
|
||
|
|
<p>Afterwards, when you connect, you'll need to supply a password:</p>
|
||
|
|
<pre class="no-pretty-print" style="width:50%;">/connect irc.freenode.net
|
||
|
|
/nick <yournickname>
|
||
|
|
/msg nickserv identify <password>
|
||
|
|
/join #android-dev</pre>
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
</ul>
