Honestly, it’s starting to get a bit overwhelming. No, really, I’m feeling it. Right here. For real.

First, there was a clamoring to hear “Wingin’ It” via a live stream, in all it’s unedited glory. Skype is handling the load for now, but I have a feeling other solutions will present themselves very soon.

Mike Wills took the lead and started up a Dragon Page Fans mailing list.

And now, to enhance the chatting that goes along with the stream, I’ve decided to forgo the Skype chatroom in favor of something more centralized and easier to use globally. After all, that’s what IRC was created for, right? And everyone can be in there chatting, whether or not a show is being recorded.

For those savvy with the chat networks, there’s a new channel out there. Point your irc client of choice to

irc.freenode.net

and hop into channel

#wingin_it

That’s all you need to do. The channel will be there 24/7, and will eventually have a beer fridge bot monitoring the room and taking drink requests (if Chuck sends me the code). Keep in mind, however, that irc tech has evolved on quantum levels since the last time I was a regular user, so if there are any other irc savvy listeners out there, feel free to send me suggestions.
