i don't know how to access chat sites apart from irc servers.. because they require more advanced java. i already tried some just to see if i succeed, but of course i did not. so irc is the only way to go... maybe we can make some faq about using irc
so that everyone could use it.
or you could put a quite simple java applet on hpcfactor that could work with hpcs too
(i know some applets that have a chance for it
), but.. i'm not sure if that would work with everyone's machine
(and people would still have to install something...
)
on the other hand, ircce is compiled for even windows CE 1.0!!
oh, i've just got another idea: a java applet on hpcfactor for those who can't or don't want to learn to use irc, and at the same time, the server would be accessible with an irc client too
(for example if there's no other way for the hpc to access the chat
). so you should just choose one depending on the circumstances...
or not on hpcfactor if that's too much work
, there are already chat sites that are also accessible from irc.
so all people with any HPC would be welcome!
