IRC is the backchannel behind the hackspace, people are constantly connected and chatting there.
It's one of the best ways to get quickly acquainted with the regular crew, and lemonparty.

Channel Bots
There are a couple of utility bots in the channel.
- Robonaut is an instance of Irccat running on Babbage. All paying members can add commands to him. Code for these is uploaded to Github.
