The internet and world wide web is full of “free”
information. Whenever you want to know about something, just going to Google
search, typing some terms and that instant Google gives you over 1,000 answers
or topics. But with all that information overload, how easy is it to get the
relevant information? How accurate is the information? Who is there to check
for accuracy and relevance of the information? In short, Google assumes a lot.
It is like someone trying to teach you how to swim, and instead of taking you
through step by step, instead he throws you right in the midst of an ocean expecting
you to figure out how to swim, you might learn, or drown.
This is where internet forums come in. What is a forum? an Internet discussion group for
participants with common interests. Most consumer based websites are now
founding their own forums to serve their clients better, to target more clients
and to educate their clients on their products and services. They are not
taking chances with the recent information overload all over the internet.
So why should you belong to an internet forum?
