There is another addition to our directory of active forums, it is an online forum devoted to the issues and people affected by the New York Prison system. This is a great site that provides tons of information about the New York Prison system. It also does much more than this, it provides a place for families and others affected by prisons in New York to communicate with eachother. Worthwhile forums like this deserve to be promoted.

There is one area in all of our lives that we can always be a little more careful with, a little more organized with, and a little more detailed with… personal finances. Financial problems, big or small, can affect our relationships with friends and family greatly, especially the relationships between a husband and a wife. If financial problems have become the biggest issue in a marriage, the best thing for the couple to do is to seek out some sort of Debt Management.

Personally, my grandfather taught me a lesson when I was very young. He would tell me that I always need to know how much money I have. I could ask him at any moment during the day and he would know precisely, to the penny, how much money was in his wallet and in loose change in his pocket. He simply counted it in the morning and kept a running total as the day went on. Some have told me that this is rather obsessive compulsive, but I would disagree. What he was teaching me was to always know my financial footing before I enter a transaction. Whether buying a new plasma TV or going through the local fast food drive-thru lane, I now always know from the beginning what I can afford to get. I would like to pass this along to my son one day as I think it is a valuable lesson to learn. It is a lesson of personal Debt Management, a way to dodge some of the avoidable financial problems in the future.

Whether we’re talking about romance, friendship, or business contacts - authentic relationships can be formed through message boards. Like any online transaction, this one involving your time and sometimes emotions, when investing we need to double check and investigate the authenticity of those that run the site as well as those we are communicating with. Never take someone’s word at face value online, people mis-represent themselves regularly. Sometimes this misrepresentation is harmless and sometimes it is part of a scam.

Through frequenting an online forum and sharing ideas with like minded people, it is easy to see how one could make a meaningful social contact. Some people tend to be more open and honest when communicating anonymously. Real friendships, and even romance, can and do occur semi-regularly. Some of these relationships never move on to the three-dimensional world while others do with both success and failure. Sometimes groups can meet online and then successfully meet in large groups offline as well.

Business contacts made through online forums and message boards can also be quite viable. People from different industries, regions, and experience levels can sometimes offer the exact input we need to get a business idea running, or reinvigorate a stalled business. Other people’s views from the outside are usually not as clouded or distracted as our own, and they can sometimes see our situations more clearly.

Whether using an online forum or message board for social or business purposes, approach it with some trepidation. Remember that not everyone you meet is exactly who or what they say they are. The value is there if used correctly.

Most successful forum sites that you know of are setup primarily as message boards right from the homepage. While this is one of the best ways to organize a community, it is not the only way to run an online forum. Many companies have and will experience a certain amount of success by integrating an online forum into part of the structure of their web presence.

A retail company can use an online forum as a way to stay in touch with their customers. This is a great idea for a number of reasons, including that these are already people interested in their products so you might as well cultivate relationships with them and the fact that by establishing a community for these customers you can continually hit them with advertising and special offers.

A news company (example) can use an online forum to get feedback from its readers. This also encourages new readers to visit as they feel their opinions and views are being treated respectfully and wanted.

The same can be true for a blog or other type of online news source. Installing a forum can turn your website into a community and encourage repeat visitors. Once people participate just a couple of times in an online discussion they will continue to come back to see if anyone has responded to their questions or remarks. A successfully run online forum then starts to feed off itself and can grow rather quickly.

In what many would say is an odd action by a government with a reputation for not treating it’s citizens particularly well, China has made available through media outlets an online forum to interact with it’s people. Chinese citizens can now voice their public concerns. One of the first revelations to come from this of discussion was finding out what the general populations biggest concerns are. It seems that their number one concern is for housing for low income people. That is yet another way that the situation in China is not really that different than the situations in other countries around the world.

The unspoken part of this is that this appears to be a sign that China is opening up even more in the area of free speech… and they’re using online forums to do it.

It appears that an overeager sales manager of an Infiniti dealership in New York somewhere accidentally (or on purpose) released information on an Infiniti forum that the company was waiting to reveal. This is a semi-common occurrence on many corporate forums and represent one of the many dangers of the internet when related to business. Infiniti was planning on unveiling their redesigned model soon, but because of this one guy’s mistake part of the design is already out and being viewed by the public.

There is a great post from over at Who-Iz regarding directory submissions, the main point being that if someone has a directory with high page rank value, be careful what you pay to submit to it when the page your link appears on will most likely not carry that same high page rank.

Directory submissions here at forum-sites.com are free… as they always have been. Just click the Active Forum Directory link to the right.

Check out this article from the Wall Street Journal discussing how important it is for an online business to provide a customer driven online forum. So many benefits come from organizing and hosting your own online forum. Customers can interact with other customers to ease their fears about making a large purchase, they can ask questions of company representatives in an easy to use way, and perhaps most importantly companies have continual access to both former and potential customers and can market products to them. If you have an online business, running an online forum may be of great benefit to you.
