i also think this would be a great idea.   i use irc a lot of the time
(most of the time it's just waiting for others to come online) os something
like this would be great.

i know some about the IRC protocol... but just taking a look at the RFC for
it would be enough for anybody to get a good idea how it works.

maybe there could be a way to also send messages to IRC channels, too, and
not just private messages to users...??
