,----[ Quote ]
| Internet Relay Chat (IRC) is a form of real-time Internet chat or synchronous
| conferencing. It is mainly designed for group (many-to-many) communication in
| discussion forums called channels, but also allows one-to-one communication
| via private message and data transfers via Direct Client-to-Client.
| Meanwhile, Instant Messaging (IM) is a form of real-time communication
| between two or more people based on typed text. The text is conveyed via
| computers connected over a network such as the Internet.
