Earlier this week I decided to get rid of the forums here on the site. I think there are still uses for forums on the web but I think the death of the traditional forum is drawing near. So in that vein I have opened up a community site here on the site.

It’s an open source social networking software package, think Facebook or MySpace, that gives users of RoamingGecko more tools and ways to get involved here at the site. The software is still in its infancy and I still have some tweaking to do but the site is up and operational and ready for users. With the new site you can add and maintain friend’s lists, create groups, share files, upload pictures and videos, carry on group discussions. I am planning on adding more features over the coming weeks so stay tuned. I recommend that you join the New Users Group once you register. If you have any questions on how to use the new site you can post your questions there.

Enjoy the new features of the site!
