    Boo! 1, that's not a BBS, that's a web site. 2, if it's one click,
    they're
    all going to look the same. That's nothing to brag about.

    IRC works really neat too. You can search for channels to join before joining a channel. Users entering and leaving the channels appears as pop-up notif instead of cluttering the channel. All channels you join shows how many unread messages. When you reenter the channel, it continues from the marker of unread messages. You can scroll down to read each messages. New incoming messages will not force you to skip your unread messages.
