Website Development

The Sacramento Independent Media Center's website is currently being constructed. It will eventually be located at http://sac.indymedia.org/ or something similar. This is a temporary site for organizational purposes. The design and aesthetic of the site may undergo reconstruction as well. Stay tuned.

Want to get in touch with us? You can subscribe to imc-sac@indymedia.org, the Sac IMC mailing list.

Internet Relay Chat (IRC)

IRC (Internet Relay Chat) is a great tool for chat and organization. Indymedia has an IRC server (irc.indymedia.org). The Indymedia IRC server is essential for Indymedia communication.

A good Windows IRC client is mIRC, and there's Ircle for Mac users. If all else fails, there is a Java client, just type #Sacramento in the channel field and there you go!


Tech Person

IMC Sac needs tech people! Indymedia is operated mostly by PHP working with MySQL, PostgreSQL, and a little Perl. The Sac IMC is currently limited to HTML. A techie could help get the newswire going. Documents on this are at:

This is the home of the future Sac IMC Newswire.
