    Hi folks--

    Been using this site for great help with DVD Shrink, and offering my own tips, but now I have a general question about sites like this with response boards like this--what are they CALLED? I want to find other websites on woodworking, beermaking, etc, but I'm not sure what to look for in the webpage descriptions--are these places where you can ask questions and get responses from other members called "boards"? "blogs"? "listserves"? I mean not the names for the SITES, but this specific option--the thing where you leave a question and get a thread of answers?

    What do i look for when I want some kind of response board where you can leave questions, receive and give answers, etc.? Any help of this nature would be great, like what tag-word to add to my google search so I can find sites with that option.

    Thanks very much,


    Mixwell

    This is the wrong forum for this question, but the answer you are looking for is simply 'Message Board' or 'Discussion Forum'.

    Those two lines with the appropriate topic should net you a plethora of options to choose from.

    Lol, that's the point: I know it's the wrong forum, but I didn't know where else to ask.

    you got the best answer there is, mixwell. no need to grow an attitude. that's a good way to get sean connery to kick your bum.

    Yeah, and now let's continue MORE unnecessary comments that don't fit in this forum and confound your point of things not belonging here by contributing to it yourself; jesus, you computer folks....go outside and jog, won't you?

    Hey Aus.. sounds like another self important little one who needs a good virtual spanking . muahahahahaha

    it's All Other Topics; no one stays where they should for long.

    you've got your answer, and there's really no others. this is the point where threads are closed anyway.

    isn't it lovely how students can get a break mid-day?

    *edit*
    hey, at least jesus loves you. :)

    It's better how workers can come home in the evening to more retarded chatter on the internet, in the sure and certain knowledge that nothing needs doing till later. :lol:

    Corr, someone really pissed in his Cheerios!

    Why the sudden change of tone mixwell? No one was complaining; if anything, Cinch was merely answering Auslander's question..
