Trillian will run. Move it where you want it and then, of the five circles [orange, green, grey, blue, and red] below your contact list, click the grey one and a Connection Manager option comes up. Click it.
Scroll down the Internet Relay Chat list until you see DALnet and click on it and then click the Add button. A new window will pop up asking for a Description, Server, Country, Port, and Group. For Description, enter Howard Dean; for server, kernel.ga.us.dal.net; country United States; leave port at 6667 [and open that port if you're behind a firewall]; and finally choose DALnet for the group and click OK. Double-click on DALnet in the list, then double-click on United States, single-click on Howard Dean, and then click Connect. You will be taken back to Trillian. Click on the grey circle again and choose Join Channel. You will be asked to enter a channel name, it is PeoplePoweredHoward. Now you can chat with whoever is there whenever you want.
Once you have gone through the initial setup, connecting to the chatroom is very simple. Load Trillian, click Connection Manager, make sure the Howard Dean selection is made, click Connect, and join the PeoplePoweredHoward channel.

About Nation-Building
Nation-Building was founded by Aziz Poonawalla in August 2002 under the name Dean Nation. Dean Nation was the very first weblog devoted to a presidential candidate, Howard Dean, and became the vanguard of the Dean netroot phenomenon, raising over $40,000 for the Dean campaign, pioneering the use of Meetup, and enjoying the attention of the campaign itself, with Joe Trippi a regular reader (and sometime commentor). Howard Dean himself even left a comment once. Dean Nation was a group weblog effort and counts among its alumni many of the progressive blogsphere's leading talent including Jerome Armstrong, Matthew Yglesias, and Ezra Klein. After the election in 2004, the blog refocused onto the theme of "purple politics", formally changing its name to Nation-Building in June 2006. The primary focus of the blog is on articulating purple-state policy at home and pragmatic liberal interventionism abroad.
