A bit over two months and no posts. We are actually well into the 3rd gen after bulletin boards though... with the decline of myspace... facebook still going strong. Haven't found a use for twitter yet... and less still sadly for these bulletin board sites.
Hi to some I see around - Alecapone, mpd, shedao - saw some of your posts. Enjoy your summer!
Hi Mike. Nice to hear from you.
I agree with you there except for the usefulness of BB sites. It's a great place for self promotion!! Just click on my blog and see! Oh wait, this is my blog...
I've made too many connections, both social and business, all through snow related BB's. Just yesterday, I had a job interview, went to an OEC course, seen half a dozen people that I knew online first, seen my picture in a magazine,,,, all becasue of connections made in forums. Oh yeah, and I made some friends in utah a couple years ago. Curious if you would consider that a good use? Worth the price of admission?
This place is dead, but it has more to do with the way it was managed then anything. Ohter forums seem to be doing ok. It seems to me that as the fad wears off, there is just less noise, more signal. Might even get peole to talk about snowboarding on here someday.
Twitter and egocentric blogs on the other hand.....absolutly no use for me.
Anyhow, hope you and your family are doing well.
