You can make irc channels hidden
you can make irc channels private
you can make irc channels secret

You can irc from a telnet session.
there are irc clients for probably every platform since the abacus irc tends to be more like a chatting than webchat programs

I mean, sure, have a web-based chat thing if you like, but I think irc is much better for chatting and easier to get at than one of those web things.
