P2, and forums and IRC are fine if you are sat at a desk all day. I
regularly have to travel. I can get my email on my phone whilst on a train,
I can reply too. I cannot participate in a real time discussion on my phone
on a train.

And don't forget we are all in many different time zones. Other than
pre-arranged meetings, IRC is not great for ongoing conversations (even with
logs).
