Want to chat about social media? Weblogs Work’s parent, Spur, has a new channel on Freenode for anyone interested in discussing our various projects (Big in Japan, SimpleTicket, Weblogs Work, hResume or Architel). We know it is a little old school, but it works for us. Feel free to pop on if you have a question, concern or suggestion. Someone will usually be on.Our goal is to make the IRC channel our main forum for real-time communication. You will need an IRC client to get on. For OSX users try Colloquy.

Pick a nickname, select IRC as the server protocol and select irc.freenode.net as the chat server (no proxy, port 6667). Now you are ready to join the Spur chatroom just type: #spur and you are in.
