Recently, there has been a lot of renewed interest in forums (formally known as Bulletin Boards) and there have been a lot of questions surrounding just how to do this. Well, our special guest tonight is Patrick O’Keefe, the author of Managing Online Forums (you can find a link to his book on Amazon at the top of this post) and he will go over just what it takes to start out in this new venture.

Patrick can be found on Twitter as @iFroggy in case you want to follow him.

Due to the complexity of this interview, please listen to it in the player below to make sure you get all of the information about this topic. It is far to complex to transcribe into the show notes.

Michelle Trent, @michelletrent on Twitter, has a special guest interview during her segment tonight as well.
