+Eggdrop is an IRC bot, written in C. If you don't know what IRC is, this
+is probably not whatever you're looking for! Eggdrop, being a bot, sits
+on a channel and takes protective measures: to keep the channel from being
+taken over (in the few ways that anything CAN), to recognize banished
+users or sites and reject them, to recognize priveledged users and let
+them gain ops, etc.
+
+One of the more unique features of eggdrop is its "party line", accessable
+via DCC chat, which allows you to talk to other people lag-free.
+Consider it a multi-way DCC chat, or a miniature IRC (complete with
+channels). You can link up with other bots and expand the party line
+until it actually becomes something very much like IRC, in fact.
