Cisco Blog Forum
No...it's not here yet. BUT, I've gotten enough requests for a general forum that I've decided to give it a go. I've downloaded and installed a forum engine which has a daunting number of options. Over the next week or two, I'll be configuring the forum options and creating the boards. Are there any specific categories ya'll would like to see?
Please keep in mind, this forum will be about community and not just me answering everyone's questions! I'm sure I'll jump in here or there on a particularly exciting topic, but I know this is one of those systems that could suck me in causing me to abandon life as a whole...which I've tried to stop as of late. Please tag any suggestions / comments on to this post - thanks!

Sweet. I recommend a study section, for people to answer each others questions (and not you!). I for one will volunteer as much info as i can, and even willing to share my CCIE study screw ups. I look forward to it.

You sir, are a brave soul. I run a number of forums and for the most part they're pretty easy to run as long as you get the right kinds of people contributing. What's your focus going to be? All things Cisco? What forum software are you using? I've been enjoying SMF for a while but it looks like phpBB might have finally gotten their act together with the latest release.

Good on ya Jeremy. On a selfish note, i'd like to see a ccvp forum, because i've just started on the road to that cert. On another note, an "anything not related to networking" forum surely can't go amiss.

Scott: I'll be using SMF - it seems simple enough.
Steve/Luis: I'll ensure certification forums will be a part of this.

Have a look at http://www.networking-forum.com/. It could help with coming up with categories or selecting categories not already covered. No sense in reinventing the wheel one more time,
