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 freenode or Mibbit for #waze on shadowfire.
