That's the point! And for the records: You won't find me on IRC |
| 13 |
often, but for some short-time collaboration (bug days) or small check |
| 14 |
I go there. And having written those long emails consumed more energy |
| 15 |
then setting up an IRC client, connecting to Freenode (without joining |
| 16 |
any channel) and go to a query with the recruiter...nobody will ever |
| 17 |
notice that Duncan has been on IRC. |
| 18 |
The right tool for a task, and sometimes IRC is the right tool. |
