Join TUAW on IRC
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.If you're looking for a good OS X IRC client give Colloquy a try.

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.
Thanks for moderating it Cory lol. All that scrolling text was dizzying.

TUAW isn't that important and is more like the sister channel, #macrumorschat
Lol, I was on for a while, but it got up to 340 members, and it was pretty much impossible to read
