    Default know a free 'forum' hosting service?

    I want to have a place on the net to act as a 'virtual meeting room'.

    Basically I see it as a small forum... but "Forum" really is an incorrect word to use.... "virtual meeting room" doesn't cut it either as a good term, so I'll use "forum" till I come up with a better word.

    I know that some State Govt's provide this kind of service to community groups, but usually the overall site is pretty poor, difficult to get into and navigate around..... and no-one uses them.

    Ubeaut provides the best forum I've come across, but I shudder to think of the time, effort and money spent .... and I am very thankful Ubeaut is willing to bear this cost for my benefit!

    Just a place to bring together people for a meeting, with the posts acting as both the "Minutes" of the meeting, and a way to 'brief' new attendee's.

    A place to allow a meeting to happen independent of the time that people can actually get on the net, and a place to invite people from a wide range of contacts to get together to resolve problems and exchange info on common interests.

    I think I can make the forum 'work'.... but need a place to host it without needing to pay a heap of cash to someone to make it 'work' technically.

    Any ideas?
    Cheers,
    Clinton

    Clinton,

    If you want to set up a forum similar to this one have a look at http://www.cjb.net/ and select the Free Forums link. I have seen a couple hosted there and while not anywhere near the league of what Neils has here, it is a start.
    Have a nice day - Cheers
