i use pidgin, that works very well.

I tried that but it wouldn't pop up a window for the channel unless someone else typed something in the channel. I know we used to know how to get the window, but it's been so long... T.T

What program are you using to connect?

That was with Trillian. We gave up on it and switched to ChatZilla, which suits us just fine because we use Digsby for all of our IM at the moment. Digsby does GTalk, Trillian doesn't, so having Trillian and Digsby up at the same time seems a bit redundant.

I have no experience with either, but if you can't get it to work I still suggest mIRC - a) it's very user friendly; b) it is low on system resources so easy to run in the background; and c) I can talk you through it keystroke by keystroke if necessary.
edited the first post with info on our new chat bot, fluffbunny.

have fun!
This is IRC, so we don't whisper <!-- s

But if you type "/msg Fluffbunny help" or /query Fluffbunny help" that will do it!
Or just double click on him to open a private chat window. That works too.

That = /query Fluffbunny

anyway. for those with a low screen resolution, i've made
another version of the chat page.

I've only ever heard it called msging, with whispering - with all it's "oooh look how user friendly I am" and lack of actual functionality is generally relegated to web chat <!-- s
