IRC (Internet Relay Chat) provides multi-user real-time chat (or instant messaging).

Our official channel is '''##cobra''' on '''irc.freenode.net'''

(Note that we don't have the "one pound" #cobra channel. If you don't see anyone on there like cobrabot, CobraCommander, Kurper, then you may be on the wrong channel. Actually at least one of us is often on #cobra just to catch people who show up there.)
