We can get people to sign up on abitsocial.com and setup an event page there as well.
It would help getting the platform moving as well.

Oh... c'mon there have been only 6 people who ever logged into this room.
Starting to think its going to be a waste keeping an IRC up and running.
Starting to think its going to be a waste keeping an IRC up and running.
Dude in the era of whatsapp, BBM and viber (including free text) i doubt if people will be interested in IRC.
Kepp it open if it is not costing you anything.
If it is, then rethink on it.
Whatsapp and bbm what a waste.
will let the room stay open.
I will remove my bot out of it, can use my shell some place else.
Can try a timed event on IRC see how that works out.
Ex: 2 - 3 PM on a weekend afternoon. I can help by tweeting it, etc and we can get a small crowd for sure.
Please organize so it does not clash dates with the Bangy meetups.
Sounds great. how about this weekend. Sunday 2-3 pm.
What say you?
We have a Bitcoin meetup this Sunday. We can do 7th or 8th.
8th would be better.

looks like the volume of people interested in Bitcoin is fat lower that we thought in India.
the volume of people interested in irc is low in India for sure.
I remember discussing this with Amitabh a year ago. It is not very user friendly although extremely functional.
Sorry about that, looks like people dont want to use IRC. i still have a channel bot running on that and do login during the night. but so fat no one come over. looks like the volume of people interested in Bitcoin is fat lower that we thought in India.
The issue is IRC is kind of alien for people in India

Sub has been invited. I do like the IRC idea as well for sure. More the exposure and discussions, the better.
Integration of IRC and abitsocial chat?
? That could be a good shot in the arm for it.yeh that can be done there are a lot of web based IRC clients that can be added to the site .
That is something i will add to my to-do list. However, i won't be able to get to that anytime sooner. I have a huge list in front of me.
Have been working on a few and crossing out some of them over the weekend. Am excited to showcase them on prod server.
Will shortly push them from dev to prod.
