Banglacafe Chat Network


BanglaCafe was created to help bridge the gaps between Bangladeshi people everywhere in the hope of bringing everyone together in a harmonious group.
We understand that there is a long way to go before we can achieve such a community.. but computers and the Internet are making the impossible possible everyday - especially in the realm of media communication. There are numerous websites related to Bangladesh and the Bangladeshi community which collectively enrich us everyday and in so many ways. BanglaCafe is our contribution to this on-going effort to help develop a Positive and Uplifting community that will help Bangladesh step into the 21st century.

Banglacafe Life:

BANGLACAFE HISTORY

BanglaCafe was founded in October 1999. It was just an IRC room at the beginning stage. Some other features such as Free email, MatchMaking, Music, Games etc. were added later on. After one year, BanglaCafe launched its own independent IRC server, which is currently the biggest Bangladeshi owned IRC server on the net! BanglaCafe IRC Network (irc.banglacafe.com) is running in Chicago, IL, USA.

BanglaCafe was first started by few online friend's dedicated enthusiasm and hard work. Few names that must have to mention here are, Lincoln, Fubu, Shonchita Islam, Nimun, Nishi, A.K.M. Islam, Rocket, Russel, MR9, Subid, Prince, Purna, Lovelu, Alvi, Voipai, XAN, Neelakash, KILLA_UK , GouroB , Eros. Also hundreds of online friends, without their encouragement and advice nothing would have been possible; our thanks goes to all of them from the bottom of our hearts.
