+IRC on the Web
+---------------
+
+While a client (xchat, hexchat, etc), on any platform, is the best way to
+experience IRC on a daily basis, you can in fact use your web browser to
+connect to IRC!
+
+While it might not be as comfortable as a native client, irc via a browser is
+actually quite full featured.
+
+It depends on you knowing commands though, so `this page on the IRC beginner
+website <http://ircbeginner.com/ircinfo/ircc-commands.html>`_ will come in
+real handy.
+
+So let’s start at the very beginning.
+
+Here’s what we’d need for our summer sessions.
+
+1. We need a browser
+2. We need an username that stays the same, throughout sessions
+3. We need to login to the #dgplug channel on `freenode <https://webchat.freenode.net>`_ with that username
+
+Step 1. The Browser
+-------------------
+
+Congratulations!
+
+You’ve already have one and are successfully connected, if you’re reading this
+:)
+
+Step 2. A username for IRC.
+---------------------------
+
+Let’s mosey over to the `freenode website <https://webchat.freenode.net>`_
+

+
+| Login with the username you want, like I’ve done here.
+| I’ve chosen ``mariojason`` for a username.
+| Ignore the channel and auth options for now.  
+| Just clear the I am not a robot test. 
+
+|
+

+
+
+|
+
+And you should enter the world of irc!
+
+There’ll be a lot of stuff that’ll end with a screen like this.

+
+| You’ll obviously have figured out that the little white box at the bottom is where you type in your messages and commands. 
+| You can type ``/quit`` to quit your connection for example.
+| Also note the tab that says “status” (not visible in the pic) above at the top of your window. 
+| You’ll want to click this tab before typing in sensitive IRC commands (as you will do shortly).
+| You’ll see more tabs at the top as you join channels later and you’ll use the tabs to switch between them.
+
+| You in with your username? Good.
+| Now let’s register it so that we can always have the same one.
+| Type the command ``/msg NickServ REGISTER <password> <email>``, where password will be some complicated password of yours while email is where you put in your email address
+| You can see me doing it below

+
+
+If all works well, Nickserv will reply saying that activation instructions
+have been sent to your email id, like so …

+

+
+So hop over and check your mail. This is what you should expect to see.

+
+

+
+Let’s copy the ``/msg`` line and go back to the irc page and paste it in the
+chat bar like so …
+
+|  
+
+.. figure:: img/webirc/webirc-7.png

+And voila! You should be verified!

+
+Now that we’re done registering our nickname, quit the connection by typing in
+the ``/quit`` command and let’s move to …
+
+Step 3. Connecting to the DGPLUG channel.
+-----------------------------------------
+
+Now we’re back to `where we started <https://webchat.freenode.net>`_.
+
+Only this time, fill in all the details.
+
+1. Put in your nickname
+2. Use #dgplug as the channel to connect
+3. Enable auth to services
+4. The username is the same as the nickname
+5. Fill in the complicated password that you had created for your id.
+
+And hit Connect!
