IRC isn’t an instant messenger as such – its a chatroom program.

I expected most people to be sticking with the standalone clients, but that's not the case at all.What's even more surprising is that the largest share of the votes right now is given to Skype, which I knew people used but I didn't think the largest portion of our audience would be using that.
