The Y-Combinator-backed startup Convore launches today, boasting one of the easiest ways to handle group-chat.
Convore is a real-time communication tool, but unlike many other apps that offer group chat, Convore runs in your browser and doesn't require a download or chat client. "Basically, it's a contemporary version of IRC," says co-founder Leah Culver.

I had to recheck that >>2-san is not necroposting. What's revolutionary about text chats? It's not like we don't have web-browser irc clients, webchats, etherpad(RIP) and google wave(DIE) already
Why would anyone want some non-standard IRC beats me. SILC was a bit interesting, but I really dislike cases where some company invents some proprietary chat protocol and just runs their servers. Open protocols which let you build your own networks or contribute your own servers to existing networks' infrastructure are much better.
