An issue I have with IRC is that I am unable to use it

department has blocked access. Some of the conferencing options allow
connecting via telephone to address the bandwidth problems. Some of
them also offer one month free trials so we can see how it would work
for us before we commit money.

Regarding the limitation of IRC at work; if you can view web pages using javascript, there
are IRC gateways which will let you use IRC as a web page. Here is the url for
Wikizine.Org's gateway:
http://chatwikizine.memebot.com/cgi-bin/cgiirc/irc.cgi It does
not yet allow access to
irc://irc.freenode.net/Wikimedia-ca, but I can ask to have it
added.
