<li><b>IRC/Chat</b><br>
Start your IRC client (e.g. HexChat) and connect to the <a href="irc://127.0.0.1:6668/i2p">server</a> at <code>127.0.0.1 port 6668</code>.
You do not need to configure a proxy in your IRC client; I2P provides you with a local IRC tunnel (configured in your IRC client as an IRC server or remote host).
Your local I2P IRC tunnel on <code>localhost:6668</code> will direct you to one of three IRC servers hosted on I2P by Postman, echelon and zl0, but neither you nor they know where the other is, and your communications are encrypted in transit by I2P to prevent interception.

Once you're there, <code>#i2p-chat</code> and <code>#i2p-dev</code> are just a few of the available channels you may wish to join.
You may run your own servers over I2P, such an other IRC servers, Jabber servers, website-based chat and more. If you are a developer, you can create your own <a href="http://i2p-projekt.i2p/applications.html" target="_blank">I2P applications</a>.
Both UDP and TCP protocols are <a href="http://i2p-projekt.i2p/techintro.html#op.transport" target="_blank">supported</a>.</li>
<li><b>The AddressBook</b><br>
This is a locally-defined list of human-readable addresses (ie: i2p-projekt.i2p) and corresponding I2P addresses.(udhdrtrcetjm5sxzskjyr5ztpeszydbh4dpl3pl4utgqqw2v4jna.b32.i2p) It integrates with other applications to allow you to use those human-readable addresses in place of those I2P addresses. It is more similar to a hosts file or a contact list than a network database or a DNS service. There is no recognized global namespace, you decide what any given .i2p domain maps too in the end.</li>

<li><b>The QR Code Generator</b><br>
Besides the Address Book, I2P addresses can be shared by converting them into QR codes and scanning them with a camera. This is especially useful for Android devices.</li>
