Official announcements and community discussion forums

- New message indication icons
- First unread message links
- Private messaging (PM)
- Topic subscriptions (you receive email when a new post is made)
The forums support Tapatalk for the iPhone. Tapatalk is a paid app but there is a free version for read only access to the forums
The forums provide an RSS feed. Here are instructrions for getting an RSS feed on subfourms
The forums have a search facility, but do not index certain common words. If that is a problem you can follow these instructions to search the forum using Google
IRC - Internet Relay Chat (unofficial)
Most Wazers currently use the ##waze IRC channel on the freenode.net network to chat in real time.
Wazers originally used the #waze IRC on the shadowfire.org network.
IRC can be accessed with computer IRC client programs (such as mIRC for PCs), smart device IRC client apps, or via a web based client such as ##waze on freenet or Mibbit for #waze on shadowfire.
