New SOCAL928.COM site
 

There has been some debate lately about what the socal928 crowd should do now that msn is getting rid of its groups feature where the current message board is hosted.

I registered socal928.com shortly after buying my car and before I even knew that there was such a thing as the msn group. When I found out about the msn closure I wanted to step up and do something for the local community so I installed some message board software and started talking to people that have been around for a while and to gauge interest.

After talking to Dr. Bob and some of the other locals it was mentioned that something a little more comprehensive than just a message board for locals would be a good idea. With this in mind I’ve loaded a fairly complete content management system so that each user is able to have some information about themselves and store photos in addition to the message board. I’m also looking at implementing blogging software if there is demand, but this could be a little way down the road.

With that in mind, I’d like to invite everyone over to www.socal928.com to take a look around and let me know what you think. Everyone is welcome, regardless of geographical location but the content of the board is primarily geared towards the SoCal crowd. The message board is not meant to compete with any of the current technical forums, but is more of a social and organizational tool for locals.

Thanks.

Sweeeeeeeet! I Registered!

pretty nice, right ideas.

hopefully, everyone who ventures to the site will read, understand, and abide by the rules.

sandbox fights are just becoming more and more prevalent on other sites, to the point of lawsuits (?). :rolleyes:

not trying to stir up anything, just putting a point across that such things are really getting annoying.

Good luck with the site Dev----

Can anyone sign up or just SoCal 928's?

Everyone's welcome.

The idea is to keep it mostly non-technical and to limit the pissing contests and keep things friendly. If your Alien ever makes it to the left coast I'll be first in line to take a look!

Cool,
Actually I'm planning to attend this event. It's a 914 gathering.

"The West Coast Ramble 2009" will be held on the weekend of May 15th, 16th and17th. We are planning a meet and greet Friday night and rides on Saturday. This will be in Irvine, Headquartered out of The Double Tree Inn. On Sunday we move to The Lancaster Inn for our Show/Shine and Awards Dinner. On Monday we go to The Streets Of Willow and thrash the track for the day!

Oh, this will be my third trip to the Gold Coast in the Alien.
