[edit] Introduction

Everyone should know that Stardock Central is the enhanced download manager in which you can install and mange software products from Stardock. In Stardock Central you can install/uninstall your Stardock applications, make archives of applications and skins, update your software, and more.

But did you know you can also use Stardock Central to communicate with other people in the community through either chat or forums? Do you need a question answered about a Stardock product or website, then hop on into an IRC chat and ask away.

We have community forums for WinCustomize, Galactic Civilizations, Stardock, and more. If you want to interact with our great communities you can also do that through SDC.

So how do you chat? It's very simple, and I will do a quick tutorial to show you how!

[edit] Using Stardock Central to chat

Open Stardock Central, and select "Chat" from the menu on the left side.

You could simply just hit "Connect" and you will be logged in to IRC as a guest, but you can also select "Settings" and configure it to your liking. Here I will adjust a few settings such as my nick on IRC. When you are done, just hit connect.

Some of the most popular channels on the Stardock servers, are #stardock, #wincustomize, and #poweruser.

If you want to join #stardock, simply type: /join #stardock.

Now you should be able to chat and join in on the fun!

If you want to communicate with the community through our forums, it's just as simple. Click "Discussions" from the menu and browse the various sections.

So you see Stardock Central is much more than a download manager. You can interact with our various communities, manage your software, download skins, and browse the web with it's integrated web browser. It has become a essential resource on my PC, and I recommend everyone to try it!
