Sorry I'm late. May I add the WYSIWYG perspective: if what you type is  
what you get, then

- starters gets you appetizers
- chat gets you gossip, rumors (only IRC gets you fun :)
- users gets you to the most frustated group of people ever created by  
applied information technology (the so called MFGPECAIT's ;)
- help promises help (suggested by Hans, O.K. for me)
- answers gets you answers, my 2 pennies
