IRC stands for Internet Relay Chat. IRC is a massive network of text-based chat channels (rooms) and users all across the world.
Internet Relay Chat is a live chat area of the Internet in which real-time conversations among two or more people take place via special software. Each specific IRC channel begins with a # and is dedicated to a different area of interest. IRC is considered another part of the technology of the Internet the same way FTP, Telnet and the Web are.
