Description
Shifting into another little program segment, this is a general idea for an IRC client with a Metro-inspired UI.
I will admit, I use an IRC client on a daily basis [X-Chat] and I'm a rather basic user, so there's only so much on the screen, something which I'm assured some users wouldn't like because there is a lot more hidden inside these IRC clients.
As for UI elements, the navigation in this program would be based on your favorite IRC chatrooms/servers, which are shown on top, and you can add networks with just a click and some data entry.
I'm open for any suggestions, so does anyone have any suggestions for improvements, changes, or otherwise?

Vision Originality Technique
ImpactThis is a very Metro-style take on a retro-style protocol.
Awesome. Hats off for having the guts to do this. You can host this on Github.com or Sourceforge.com, so that this can become community-driven. That, I think, will help immensely.
I think the UI should be skinnable. Again, going open source will help in this matter. As for the UI design, it's a bit too sharp at the edges and should be more subtle. The textbox borders are innovative as well <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt="
