This is my dedicated stand alone drupal irssi setup. Here are some features:

* Autoconnects to irc.freenode.net
* Joins my fav channels #php and #drupal
* Included customized and configured version of Console
* Custom reshacked system tray icon
* Custom irssi theme

You can of course easily change which channels and networks it joins by consulting the irssi documentation.
