One thing I'd like to mention with regard to setup for IRC is that in a way it's even easier than Skype. At least on http://freenode.net (where lots of open source people hang out) you don't even need to sign up for an account. You just join the channel, picking a nickname that hasn't been used, join a channel, and start chatting.

Freenode even has a web based IRC client: http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=linuxvillage

You *can* spend more time on your IRC set up, but you don't have to.

Also I'll mention that there are nice, free mobile IRC clients for iPhone (IRC999: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/irc999/id360698285?mt=8 ) and Android ( http://www.yaaic.org and http://www.andchat.net ).
