Filed under: WWDC
There is nothing better than sharing the joy of a Steve Jobs Keynote with fellow Apple fans. That's why several of TUAW's bloggers (myself included) are hanging out in the tuawrocks room in IRC (the server is: irc.freenode.net, channel is 'tuawrocks'). Join us to chat about what we hope to see, the live coverage, and the aftermath.Use Spotlight as a reference tool. Type any word in the Spotlight box and one of the top entries will be a definition. Click on it, and it will bring up the dictionary application to check the word in either the dictionary, thesaurus, Apple database, or Wikipedia.

If you actually want people to join, I might recommend providing a server and a channel and any additional information.

Something's definitely amiss with IRC because none of the freenode.net servers have a tuawrocks channel.

Lol, I was on for a while, but it got up to 340 members, and it was pretty much impossible to read

Over 550 now and text scrolling by super fast lol

Wow the channel is like too crowded. Scott you guys might need to moderate it during WWDC keynote.

MacRumors already did, irc.macrumorslive.com channel #macrumors is moderated and in 'auditorium mode' (+u) so that you can't see joins/parts, and only the ops can talk.
TUAW isn't that important and is more like the sister channel, #macrumorschat
Jon Niola said 12:00PM on 6-09-2008
Thanks for moderating it Cory lol. All that scrolling text was dizzying.

Yeah... nothing to see there except five hundred people simultaneously connecting and then leaving.

Do /ignore #tuawrocks ALL-PUBLIC-ACTIONS
This will stop the join/leave/nickname change messages etc.

Keynote style for Colloquy, which hides all the join/leaves annoyances.
