User Reviews

"Conversation is by far the most Mac-like IRC client listed on The Mac Orchard. It's extremely easy and user-friendly. It is modeled on iChat, so the learning curve is almost zero. The interface is clean, simple, and easy. I can't speak to whether it compares to Snak or Ircle in functionality, but (at least) as a beginner's program, it's superb. Besides, you can't beat the price (free)!"

Finally, take a look at ALEMIA if you think you know that name of an application, but aren't quite sure.
