FWIW, for IRC there is I believe logging at echelog.com (or is easy to arrange 
for that). 

As a PC client, I use Pidgin - it is multiplatform, not-paid and quite usable. 
Misses collecting the messages from my offline though (probably any native IRC 
would) - that is where echelog helps when I for example expect replies to 
questions posted at end of my workday. 

There are however concerns about a mobile client that would be easy to use and 
not eat all the battery and traffic allowance. During fosdem days I did 
subscribe to demo-time of this or that cloud-irc service and used it over 
browser; not sure if there is a full-time free equivalent. Full-time massive 
chats about code and work are logistically (copy-paste, kbd) easier on a laptop 
anyway.

My 2c, Jim
