Any ideas?
« on: March 08, 2009, 06:21:12 PM »
Hey everyone,

I am thinking of starting a website, but I don't want another TWC fan based community thing (Eg. TWCC, TWCT, etc.). I want to know what you guys would find good use of someones time.

I've already made an account with GoDaddy to start a website, but what should it be about? What would be a good use of someones time?

East coast weather forums has like a thousand users online during the day. Perhaps just a general weather forum?

Sorry for a double post, but I just got this in an IM (I'm not addressing anybody's names). I've been told that me starting a website would be a failure, just because of my age ( :club: ). I feel like I would be committed to the website it's self, and the forums. Anybody agree with the bold text? I just find it upsetting that I would tell me this already, even when I didn't get any chances.

Well, I do need to find board software, from IPB hopefully. If so, how many people would you think would join and actually participate?

Which part of it is ridiculous?

I've downloaded the SMF 1.1.8 forum software. I will base it off of weather, twc (Kinda a mix), and more things that people will find interesting :yes:

I would actually go with 2.0rc1 (like these forums) as it's almost near a full release now and imo, easier to upgrade.
