Sadly IRCCloud is still lacking one 100% crucial feature: a backlog search. I've been a paying IRCCloud user for almost 2 years now and back then they already had the search feature on the roadmap as "coming soon". The only way right now is to keep scrolling and scrolling and then some more scrolling until you find what you are looking for. In a busy channel this is pretty much pointless.

Completely tangential but if you use quassel, check this little thing I built for a channel we own:

There's a demo in the URL field (not hotlinking here directly because it's a weak server). I didn't really document it but there's backlog search, ?highlight=<nick> functionality and it's straightforward to add functionality.
