Monday's Poll: What are other Non-Travel Internet Forum Groups Do You Frequent?
 

I thought it would be fun to know what interests others in this board.

I love driving and taking care of my cars, so I'm also mostly in a couple of BMW-specific forums.

I also love food and wine - Chowhound.

One group specifically for expats in Italy, one which covers both expats and travellers in Italy, two alumni groups for my school (Woodstock School, India), and eGullet.


best regards,

Deirdre:

I just knew that this would be more fun than I anticipated!

I visited your school on a couple of occasions for sports meet when I was at AES in Delhi - mid-70's.

There may be a trend appearing here. . .

I also visit Chowhound and EGullet. They are excellent compliments to this site.

Is there anythng besides travel?? ;)

Another one for Chowhound here.
I'm also regular with a private co-alumni message board.

I'm better known as Mr. Fabulous at fark.com (mostly wacky commentary on current events), and Mr. MidFi at audioreview.com's Rave Recordings board (music discussion). Maybe I should check out that chowhound site, too.

mr. go:

That fark.com website is something else. What with discussion topics such as "Man living in a feces and hay-coated home full of 70 goats may have mental problems" or "New York City is declared the safest city to drive in".

In response to sfowler, I guess for some of us here, there are other aspect of lives outside of Fodors.

Another vote for chowhound. I won't go anywhere without checking out the hounds for the good food advice.

I love the Readers Paradise Forum on Glyphs.com

I go to egullet.com and chowhound.com. Food and travel go hand in hand.

I also go to motherinlawstories.com when in need of therapy or laughs.

Ah yes ... life :D

The question was: What non-travel related forums do we frequent.

Nothing was said, thus nothing can be inferred about whether this is the only travel board we frequent ;)

sfowler: "We"? I guess rcc was not clear.

However, unless there's a group typing-on-single-PC-thing going on where you are, you shouldn't arrive at the conclusion that others here have no lives nor interests outside of travel.

There's a Wine Enthusiast group that I frequent and, of course, Chowhound.
Oh, and, I also get into the audioreview.com to get information on my home theater and stereophile interests.

Remind me not to try humor on a Monday morning.

Poor sfowler. If it's any consolation, I did get your humor (even on a Monday!). :)

Timezone.com

Owning and wearing fine watches is a passion of mine.

A question for chowhound addicts - is there a facility for doing a search on that website like Fodors. I love chowhound, but it takes to long to find what I am looking for.

sfowler:

It must have been the sordid thought of the start of another work week. Kinda slow on my end to recognize your humor.

Keep it up with the rumor. We all need it. I'll just have to read them after every Wednesdays.
