I have been putting together a little pet project for my site.  Because we have so many good discussions in the comments, I wanted to have a way to expand that so I created Scott-O-Rama: The Forums.  I opened the site to a small group of people in order to test it out last November, but I had to shelve it during the holidays. 

Right now discussions on my blog are limited to a topic I’ve posted about.  Not anymore.  With this new area of the site, anyone can create a topic that they’d like to discuss: politics, current affairs, entertainment, LGBT issues, relationships, etc.  Any topic is open (within reason) as long as it’s placed in the right category.  The discussions can go on as long as someone’s got something to say.  You do need to register in order to take part in a discussion, but your e-mail address will not be used or shared by me for any reason.  The registration is simply a method to prevent spam and those who would do flaming on the discussion board.

I’m still working on and tweaking the site, so let me know if you have any feedback.
