Q: Are forums old fashioned?

Today, I had a look at some UK forums I follow. They are all very quiet.

And no, I don't post on them. So it's not my fault Smile

Is the time of the forum past? Has instant messaging replaced it?

this ecc forum is on life support and we only come here to say goodbye

BHGAL:

I honestly hope that ecc continues to exist. I like it...suspect you do too, been here a long time.

just seems we seldom get good questions ...  I have no answers, because kind of live like a hermit here, but I sure do appreciate all the info from all over China ...seems not few understand the comfort and the relaxation that can be had in China ( Guangdong China),  

anybody north of 30 degrees latitude....  go home, it is not worth the hassle.

 

No Forums are not old fashioned, yet......  e-mail is.

 

again, I like this "forum" thing
