I like News. That's a good one.

Anyone who thinks that several hundred people from all over the world can get together and talk ONLY about music for longer than five minutes is deluding themselves. I love to talk about a lot of things, music and history being the top two, but not the only two. And when people find out they have something else in common besides just music, well, something called Conversation inevitably ensues.

I have got a lot of valuable stuff from the music threads AND the non-music ones. Your mileage may vary.

I visit a long hair site that has two forums: a long hair forum, where a bunch of gals (and occasionally a guy) talk about - well - Hair. This site also has what they call a Friendship Board, where they talk about Stuff Not Related to Hair. I don't know if something like that is a viable option or not. It would certainly be a lot of work that probably isn't necessary.

So all of you who want to use your blinkers while navigating the Net, please do. Maybe the others will catch on eventually. :-)
