Looking at CE on the Internet I cannot but wonder whether discussion of CE on forums may have passed its time.
Yes, Jules, the old CE Forum was a vigorous organism. But do as Gill suggests, go to my own blogsite;
www.andrew-sutton.blogspot.com.
Scroll down the DIRECTORY in the left-hand column and look for the listof discussion forums curently up there, nearly all still-born or moribund!
And in the same column, look how bloggers interact.
To find yourself a wider world of CE or CE-related blogging, then go to Norman Perrin's Conductive Web:
Gill is quite right. You, either alone or with a colleague, ought seriously to be thinking about starting your own. I know that you have plenty to say and I suspect that for the immediate future anyway this will be the way to say it.
It's surprisingly easy and the most unexpected people thrive on it.
And it will be a very good way for you to stay in touch with the world of CE!
Andrew.
