EFNet
EFNet is an IRC network, known as the Eris Free Network since 1988, and since then renamed EFnet in August 1990. EFNet received its name because originally it threw out the server eris.berkely.edu, which allowed anyone to connect servers, leading to security problems. The resulting argument split the IRC community of admins, but almost all admins (and users) ended up joining EFNet.Although there is no official website, more information about EFNET can be found on http://www.efnet.info
- irc://irc.efnet.org/ . Copy and paste it in your web browser address bar, to launch the IRC client and connect to the network. Or see the Server list on efnet.org and connect manually. (F.e. /server irc.efnet.nl)
