Adding a RatcliffeIRC channel
I've been hanging out on Joi Ito's IRC channel, which is fascinating and fun. It also got me thinking about how to provide contributors to Correspondences.org a way to collaborate quickly, as well as how to facilitate discussion about emergent polities and what I write here on RatcliffeBlog. So, I've set up an IRC server and you can log on -- it's running on IRCXPro, a handy server that runs on this Windows system I have that I use for hardly no purpose.
Want to join in? Aim your IRC client at: 68.165.130.145, port 6667. The channel is #mitch. It's a meeting place where I'll be most of the day, except when I am traveling. I'll also be on Joi's channel, too, since the gang there is fascinating and fun.
I'm also going to mess with writing a "Sociobot" that ties into MySQL to allow people to be introduced and to track relationships by looking at who links to whom on Technorati and, if I can figure out how, on LinkedIn and other systems. Being a total neophyte, coding this will probably be hopeless. If anyone wants to help, let me know.
