Hey all -

I'm just starting to get into the language and was wondering if there's an
IRC channel anywhere for people with newbie questions about Go usage.

Cheers!

    Yes indeed, #go-nuts on freenode is a very active channel.

    I'm surprised. I checked #go-nuts more than once and I've never seen
    any other communication above "foo logged in" or "bar logged out" (or
    something like that). I must be doing something stupidly wrong.

    Like most IRC channels there's moments of inactivity. Overall though there's a ton of regulars who are very helpful. I'm in Perth, Australia and often run into 4-5 of the same helpful Gophers even during my odd timezone.

    People are generally idling until someone asks a question.
    There are lots of helpful people waiting to review code, answer questions
    and tell you how you're doing it wrong.

    Also, for the record, I turn off join/part notifications... with hundreds
    of people in the channel and only a few conversing even somewhat-actively,
    it's easy to get lost in the minutiae.

    That is not a Go related question.

    Search for IRC and your operating system on the Internet. That will
    point you to some IRC clients that you can use. Read the manual for
    those clients.

    Now this is a curious question.

    Never thought I'd see something like this :-)

    Finding golang channel, one just has to read on the website, or google 5
    seconds.

    And seeing someone who knows how to write to a mailinglist but not how
    to join IRC is also seldom :-)
    Grab an IRC client, type "/connect chat.freenode.net", "/nick myname",
    "/join #go-nuts".

    Anyways, seems to be the first question on the list that I could answer!
    Yay!

    More simple. In your browser: webchat.freenode.net

    And yeah, always, always RTFM and STFW before asking in any mailing list pr
    chat, or channel, or IRL...

    Thanks Herman, the web link worked right away, because it does not ask
    for a username and password.
    Then it is a closed question, in addition, I understood this is not the
    right place to ask about this subject.

    BTW, I always RTFM and STFW before asking, still found no document nor
    search, and not even you could answer my simple question. Please
    disregard, I can see it is waaaay too basic for you, may be that's the
    reason it is not documented anywhere. I read the IRC manual, it is a
    general explanation, I searched the internet, all you find is general
    information. I followed "blue hut" instructions below (found no way to
    enter any command), but don't worry, I'll keep trying different IRC
    clients, may be I will find a friendly one like the webchat you suggested.

    Thanks again, no more replies needed/required/wanted.
