New Volvo Forum

Discussion in 'General Motoring' started by michael.hackler, Oct 12, 2006.

  1. Visit www.swedeworld.com I own and operate this website. I have many
    years of Volvo experience as does my family. Hope to provide this site
    as a resource for Volvo owners. I do not have any advertising going
    on, no banners etc. I just want to have a cool Volvo community and
    share my knowledge and have others share their knowledge

    Please tell us why you think there is a need for a forum
    besides this NG.

    Because 0.1% of people on Internet have heard of Usenet and 0.1% of those are
    using it. On the other hand there are quite a few Volvo forums, each one
    with its own style and niche. I am a member of one of those (turbobricks)
    also.

  6. Howdy folks
    Because:

    - you can find a forum via Google
    - you can share pictures on a forum
    - most people nowaday think, usenet/newsgroups are for sharing music

    Greetings

    You can find a newsgroup in Google too.
    You can share pictures on a Newsgroup too. Just stick the picture somewhere
    (your ISP probably gives away free space, otherwise there are lots that do)
    and post the URL
    Most people (by your definition) are fcuking idiots.


    Web pages: http://www.caravanningnow.co.uk/ - caravanning,
    http://www.rcole.org/ - personal web site and http://www.homeindorset.co.uk
    because I loves the domain name for email.

  8. To all:

    I believe that my website offers numerous sources of Volvo information
    from various people in the Volvo industry, including myself, and my
    fellow workmates. I have people from indepenent repair facilities as
    well as Volvo dealers that I do work with that look at these forums. I
    figured that between all the resources something positive might come of
    this. As I stated in my initial posting, I am not in this for money.
    It is something that interests me and want to be able to share with
    other people. I offered this to you all as an alternative to the
    newsgroups. This in no way is trying to lure you to my website and
    never use the newsgroups again. I hope this explanation is sufficient.
