No seed questions or anything to entice. They just sort of put them out there. GigaOm has or had forums, but I wondered if there was much commitment to them. No seed questions or anything to entice.

They are also a great way for promotion ect. I wonder is Arrington's job board will suffer from the new forums? Why not just post a job opening on the forum instead of paying money for the board. Also, TC's forum is a wonderful mess. I cant believe they don't have categories. Thats another place where CN has them beat!

Thanks for the CN forum comment – I have been a forum master since late 1995 in one capacity or another and I understand how the model works (and doesn't work). While I applaud Mike for adding the forums – it is a complete clusterfuk in there right now.

You can't let the kiddies loose and expect to not have them tear the house down. Oh well, I am sure he will get the issues sorted out quickly. If you think about it, a blog of his size and respectability already has another 200 pages of content overnight.

Let's watch his Alexa move over the next week!

The one thing I was surprised about was how nice everyone seems on the forums. A lot of the commenters are, well, jerks. Anyways, it is amazing to see how fast it grows! I am excited about it because it might make my startup, who may not get covered in the mainstream blog, get some more publicity. Anyways, I hope the forums here take off as well. I love forms. I am a die hard sitepoint fan myself. Yep, it looks like he is more organized now. The one thing I was surprised about was how nice everyone seems on the forums.
