Roger Williams came up with the idea of meeting on IRC for realtime chats, and he started the #tinnitus channel in July 1996. Thanks Roger!
You can join the #tinnitus chats with an IRC program, or with
a java-enabled web browser.

Connect to the
NewNet
IRC network, then /join channel #tinnitus.
Or if you don't know how to join a chat using an IRC program, see the
documents in IRC Help.
Not recommended at this time, the link below forces you into
an IRC room and you'll have to leave to find the tinnnitus room... but this is
the best web gateway I could find at the moment.
To join #tinnitus using your web browser, it must enable Java.
Please read these instructions first.
