IRC Channel

[Bob Jonkman]

IRC, Internet Relay Chat is text-based.  You type, you read, you type 
some more.  High latency or low bandwidth is not a problem.

If you find the Freenode Webchat at 
http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=#ubuntu-ca too slow then you can 
use a native IRC client.  I think Empathy is a common IRC client with 
Ubuntu distributions.
