IRC是Internet Relay Chat 的英文缩写，中文一般称为互联网中继聊天。它是由芬兰人Jarkko Oikarinen于1988年首创的一种网络聊天协议。经过十年的发展，目前世界上有超过60个国家提供了IRC的服务。在人气最旺的EFnet上，您可以看到上万的使用者在同一时间使用IRC。很多人称其为继bbs后的一种即时闲聊方式，相比于bbs来说，它有着更直观，友好的界面，在这里你可以畅所欲言、而且可以表现动作化，是故使众多的网虫们留连忘返。 相比于ICQ来说，它更具人性化，而且是即时式的聊天，更接近真实的聊天情景。

Internet Relay Chat (IRC) is a form of real-time Internet text messaging (chat) or synchronous conferencing.[1] It is mainly designed for group communication in discussion forums, called channels,[2] but also allows one-to-one communication via private message[3] as well as chat and data transfers via Direct Client-to-Client.[4]
As of May 2009, the top 100 IRC networks served more than half a million users at a time, with hundreds of thousands of channels (the vast majority of which stand mostly vacant), operating on a total of roughly 1,500 servers worldwide.[5]
