a chairde,

I have created a chat on Unilang (www.unilang.org), a site dedicated to language-learning, in hopes that it could be a central meeting place for people who would like to converse in Irish at a pace faster than normal forum posting.

Instructions:
You can reach this chat either through the web at http://home.unilang.org/main/chat.php?l=en or on an IRC client such as MIRC or XCHAT. You can either register on Unilang as a member or you can join the chat as a guest without having to register.

Once you are in the main channel (#unilang) type '/join #gaeilge' without the quotation marks and this will take you to the Irish language channel. My logon there is Sionnach in case you should have any questions.
