IRC Channel

The LUG has an IRC channel which everyone (especially members) is welcome to join.

Network: Blitzed – irc.blitzed.org (but use irc.lug.org.uk if you are in UK – same network but shows support for your LUG server and ensures you don't end up connected via Timbuktu!)

Chat via web: http://www.blitzed.org/java/chat.phtml?chan=hants
