Hey,

My mates have taken to having conversations via email, by sending emails back and forward all day which is driving me mad!! Does anyone know of any websites which offer a free service to set up a discussion board? I tried yahoo, but the interface is pretty naff.

Cheers.

Yahoo Groups discussion is by far the best and is FREE. Anyone can set it up and once done it is very easy to manage. I am a member of 22 discussion forum on Yahoo Groups and manage 2 myself. Never had any problems.

Dunno if your post is addressed to Mucks or me or both!

 

[bodhi]

Im guessing mucks isn't msn's biggest fan!! Well, thats what i took from his post! Made me chortle!!

nothing wrong at all with MSN

 

[muckshifter]

Nothing wrong with any of them ... just don't you dare put one near my system.

To be honest though, I've never tried them.

 

[ChristopherP]

MSN is the best thing ever!

How else are you meant to be able to talk to your mates online for free and share any size files etc etc

 

[bodhi]

Im with chris, msn is awesome! Great way for keeping in touch with folk from all over the world. "Microsoft - bringing the world together!" ;-)

For those in offices that cant install software, try this.....

http://webmessenger.msn.com/

 

[ChristopherP]

or even www.e-messenger.net

It gets used alot at college.

I think MSN launched their webmessener service because everyone was using e-messenger!

Hey,

There is another way, just get a small hosting account and install a forum on it, if anyone wants this, just PM me and ill sort you out with a subdomain and an account, pre-installed with a forum, fully customisable.

Chris,

 

[ChristopherP]

or you could just grab a free hotmail/MSN account and log on to Webmessenger/emessenger/MSN 5/6/7...

shirley thats the easiest way to do it!

 

[bodhi]

Yeah, that would be easiest, but they are at work and cant use messenger!! And stop calling me shirley! HAHA, hands up if you love airplane!!

 

[ChrisIMRIE]

I agree with chris mostly, although at college the msn ports are blocked, thus making it impossible to use any microsoft branded software, e.g. webmessenger / windows messenger / msn messenger 6.2

Is annoying,

Chris,
