------
In order to use IRC, you need an IRC client. If you don't want to download and install a program, use the java website. If you download an IRC client, it will offer advantages like automatically saving chat logs and customization options.

web-based java site:

http://java.freenode.net/

IRC clients:

when using the IRC clients, you will need to connect to the server irc.freenode.net
-----

Basic Commands:

to change your nickname:
/nick

to register your nickname:
/msg nickserv register read this for more detail: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#nicksetup

to sign in with your user name (after it's been registered):
/msg nickserv identify

to join a chatroom (channel):
/join #

to kill a ghost (if you get disconnected and it says your registered nick is in use)
/msg nickserv ghost

*when you type these commands, omit the < > and replace them with your info.

**if you are interested in cloaking your nick (this will make your IP invisible), properly set up your nick following the instructions here http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#nicksetup After you have done that, join #freenode and ask in the chat if there are any staff members available who can help you with a cloak.

Fixing the Bebo embed code to prevent autoplay!

We have not figured out how to fix the code at the end of the video and the code under the video is wrong but the code under the video is the old code so its easy to fix:

a) copy and paste the code under the video
b) if it does not end with the closing embed code you need to add it
c) then look in the code for "autoPlay=true" and change it to "autoPlay=fase"
d) post the video

The closing embed code should look like this (without the returns of course)
<
/
embed
