Wondering what actually is #Coolplanet? |
||
What the heck is #Coolplanet? |
||
Well, #Coolplanet is actually a Malaysian Internet Relay Chat channel. Basically run by mostly Malaysians, the channel has regulars from all over the world. #Coolplanet is basically a meeting point for all Malaysians in the virtual world especially local users (Kelantan). The channel is based in Tanah Merah, Kelantan, MY. It was first founded by forever|young (Joseph Kor) This channel is quite new as not many knows our existence. Hopefully, in about one or two years, the channel can develop into a popular channel like #Mamak and other Malaysian channels. We'll never give up!! | ||
Where did you get the name? |
||
The name? Well, it all started when the SALEM tobacco company start their campaign in the TV. It was promoting their latest trade mark --Cool planet. It's main purpose is to give a full entertainment to all by making this planet Cool. So, the founder thought it was a good name and he picked it and formed the channel in early 1999. | ||
But how do I get there? |
||
Well of course you cannot connect to a chat channel simply by clicking on any of these links. You'll need an IRC client (mIRC, Ircle, Pirch, BitchX) to connect to the above list of servers. Most win95/98/NT users prefer to use mIRC. And Ircle are for Macintosh users. Pirch is also for win95/98/NT users. Hardcore LINUX users will definitely use BitchX.

Something about the web site maybe? |
||
Well, the idea of creating the #Coolplanet website came into my mind when several friends of mine ask me about it. And I say, Why Not?. So, in early 2000, I launched a web site which is really sucks! Then I launched another one in December 2000 and still I didn't satisfied with it. And so, I began planning a web site not only for #Coolplanet but to all IRC users. That's why I added many new features in it with free IRC scripts etc. I will continue to add more and more stuff in it. If you have any idea do send me an e-mail or contact me via #Coolplanet. Thanks! | ||
