Use any irc client software, point it at any of the Freenode network
servers (http://freenode.net/ for info on the service and how to use
Freenode services). Then join channel #trilug and enjoy.
#trilug is a live chat unlike the mailing list. Sometimes we talk about
Linux, sometimes we talk about things that have nothing to do with Linux.
When the steering@ discussion looked like it was going to turn into a
long one, instead of mailbombing the trilug@ list, some of us took it to
#trilug where much of the steering committee can be found during the day
and we were able to have rapid exchanges of (at first) grievances and
(later) ideas. I think such a discussion would have died in the crib if
it were carried on trilug at .

Did you know TriLUG has its own instant messaging server, too? That's
right. It uses the Jabber protocol so there is a lot of flexibility in
what client you can use and how you use it (limiting Jabber to the role
of "instant messaging" sort of understates its capabilities).
