Blogoforum - blog+forum on forum, idea, suggestion and tagging

Forum Groups are in development - your opinion?

Hey Zef, Thanks for joining Blogoforum and for the post! I'm preparing new method for message organization. The idea in short is: let the user to describe a tag or a set of tags, naming it "group" or "forum", thus providing more advanced "get a forum" functionality. Then we can describe a forum on software and recognize a subforum on programming within it, then we can recognize and describe a forum on PHP within it. That's the way to go. I wrote this in a hurry working on actual implementation so the description is a bit chaotic but you have me here willing to answer questions. What do you think about it? - 1 reply

Trying out blogoforum

This looks quite nice, definitely the best tag-based forum I've seen so far. For some reason it still appears to me as a bit messy though, have to figure out what exactly it is that makes it look a bit messy. - 2 replies

I think this is a cool idea and somewhat disruptive in it's it's simplicity and new take (tags) on an established idea (forums). I aggree with Shirkant though, you really need a way for people to identify themselves. Especially once you start getting long threads going. If people don't put their names in the posts it's going to be really hard to figure out a conversation flow. And I'd also suggest adding a "related tags" list over on the right side, so that people can browse things similar to the topic they're reading. Good effort so far. Keep up the good work!
