I have to admit that the only forum posting site that I am active at is mylot. I have joined some sites before but I cannot interact with the discussions since most of them are technical in nature. In mylot, its more of general patronage and practically there are endless choices of interest that I can relate to. Moreover the members here are truly wonderful!

There are many forums that I browse. However, these days, I very rarely jump in. I am very much a lurker. Still while being a lurker, you can still learn a lot of information all things considered. And you can always jump in, out of nowhere, if there is a need for information. I just like checking out various websites. There was one time where I did post at a bunch of forums. However, that can be rather overwhelming. There are a lot of things that you need to keep track of to be on many forums. However, it is nice to have some forums in mind, just in case you have issues. Every thing from computer problems to money to education and also forums that are for entertainment purposes. You cannot have enough of that.

Yes, I do have some forums that I am a member of. Practically, I have joined some interesting forums that educate me. I can also share my knowledge. In fact, I have also started a forum of my own on a website that I made. Most of the members are those that have joined my training. The great thing is we interact with each other and share information even if the training is already done. So its really great knowing that we continue to keep in touch and update ourselves.

Hi christiana, I am a member of a Chinese forum which is about an author whom I like very much. News about her are updated and I get to read her books there when people upload it. It's a non-paying site but it doesn't matter. I like to chat and exchange ideas with the other members there.

Yep, I'm a member of a writer's circle as well as myLot. I enjoy my time on both forums.

I'm a member of a writing forum. I also read posts in other forums now and then, but it's not usually worth my time to join and participate. I tried a couple of forums that pay for posts, but I didn't think it was worth the time and energy I spent on them. I prefer forums where I can learn something useful. Mylot combines both, but I'm here mostly for the money, and the link to my blog.

Hi Christiana, Yes, I prefer the forums more than anything else around. These are places dedicated to some specific thing and you can have your share of knowledge and skills at one place. However with the trend of sites like MyLot growing, things are widening out. MyLot also appears to be a forum sort of website with a different look and feel altogether and that's the beauty of this site.
