| <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://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=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> |
