I was wondering with such a diverse group here what other types of forums are visited if any. My first type of forum was suggested to me by a friend who is an ardent political freak and suggested that I go there to see what it was all about. That got me hooked on forums. Then I thought how about trying woodworking? So I did.
After that I got interested in some military forums which are very interactive. I had a lot of good and bad times in the Army and have the utmost respect for those individuals showing interest in serving.
After LOML wanted to set up an aquarium, went on some aquarium forums to get some help with different problems. We now have 3 aquariums.
A friend of mine was in the process of having a mobile home moved from a rental lot to a property he purchased, so we both went on a forum dedicated to mobile homes to get inside info from those that have "been there, done that".
I have at least 100 reel to reel tapes and many LP's from the 60's that I wanted to transfer to CD's. So I went on a few Audio type forums to find out the best and easiest way to do the process and which software works the best.
Had problems with my truck, and went on to an automotive forum for help. I must say, you can specifically get a forum for the exact vehicle you are looking for. Very helpful, and again, from people who have "been there, done that".
Almost forgot this one, and had to edit it in here is a roofing forum (don't laugh) when we had problems with our roof. It was very helpful when I built a shed.
What impresses me is the informality and variety of experiences that offer information and help. Have any of the members here tried other forums?
