IRC-WHERE IS EVERYBODY!?!?!?!?!?!?
Granted it was 2:30 in the afternoon, (14:30 for those of you that need the conversion), but seriously, not one person logged in to IRC was even aware that there was anyone else there. What gives? Where did everybody go? Where are all the slackers, goldbrickers, milkmen, etc? I go in for a little chit chat and sit there idly watching tumbleweeds roll by.
I will admit that I've been extremely scarce on the board and IRC over the last few months, but dost thou needest forsake me so??

think remote control computer to home. i use tightvnc from tightvnc.com most IT people are lazy so the 5800 ports are not blocked since they use it too to connect from home etc.  you set up the service side at home and then you can either use a client or just use the java enabled one to use it from a web browser which ever is easiest... the other day i didn't have a phone number so I use VNC on my Palm and connected to home to get the number from an IM window that I chatted with earlier in the day via VNC from the hotel here in Manila... and my PC is in NYC

There are often lags in the conversation on irc. The evening is the busiest time. As for me, I can't chat at work because I have 16 first graders to take care of all day. I did have a break today though, completing tests and syncing test scores so I popped in for a couple of minutes. It wasn't too busy then either. Patience is a virtue and sometimes is needed in irc.

Anywho...hopefully I'll be around a bit more to chat with everyone and be more productive on the board.

It doesn't work for me. At least not when I just click on the pop up version.
