Answer the following questions about IRC:
1. How do people interact?
People interact with each other using text messages.
2. What is the pattern of communication? Is it linear or branched? Formal or informal? One-to-many, one-to-one or a mix?
A chair leads the discussion, sets up a topic, and others participate and share their thoughts about the topic. The chair controls the time, and guides the discussion to different topics.
It's linear, informal, one-to-many. Anyway people can also specifically address to someone by mentioning the user ID.
3. Are there any terms that seem to have special meaning?
Yes. For example: #info #idea #link #topic, etc.
4. Can you make any other observations?
I use Colloquy on Mac. It's interesting that the IRC meetbot uses different colors to make the text messages easier to read. And the commands #action #agreed #halp #info #idea #link #topic really help to highlight something.
Bonus question: Look at the results of the meetbot[1], and the final meeting notes[2].
Why didn't Heidi and Darci's actions get picked up by the meetbot?
It looks like the meetbot use the commands start with # to identify and organize the messages. If the conversion didn't use the related commands, then it will not be picked up.

The communication seems different with the sample. There is no many chatting back and forth. Instead, there is many "ping" and "pong"s. Part of the screen shots are below:
