It is a real-time discussion system, divided into channels which can be either private or public (normally couple of thousand channels available any given time), "invented" back in late 1980s in Finland (older than "web"). IRC servers connect to each others and form IRC networks where all the channels within the network are available on all the servers connected to the network.

"Bad webchat that doesn't work with my browser" for those guys who don't have any idea what the heck I'm talking about :-)

You need to have IRC client to connect one of the networks. Most newbie-friendly is probably mIRC, from http://www.mirc.co.uk/
