All,
I just implemented two types of newsgroups on test sites. I'd appreciate your comments after you check them out. Both have positives and negatives.
The first is a Frontpage Discussion Web like the one used by Neil Schultiess on Boatnerd. It is nice because it doesn't require a login and shows all the posts in an index. It is very easy to use and has low overhead. My test site is at http://www.baillod.com/wreckboard/
The second is a Snitz Forum like the one used by the AGLMH and some tech diving sites. It is nice because it breaks the posts down by topics, but requires a login and a bit of clicking to get down to the messages. My test URL is http://www.baillod.com/shipwreck/wreckforums/
Let me know what you think. I may end up leaving them both up.
