Plea for help again - Technology Experts

Please help!

Okay, folks, we have received only a couple of responses to our plea for help. Seriously - we're not tech experts, but we bet some of you are!

What is a better forum for this? Here is what we are looking for: a place where we could have several topics listed, and let people comment on each topic. We would like a place where the topics would stay up, for continued discussion (unlike this blog, where stuff is pushed down chronologically and eventually falls off the radar screen).

So.....help! What is the right forum? Comment to this post, or else e-mail LCDR Tamez.

Thanks!

    Okay, I have no idea what "twitter" is. Help! Anyone?

    And, the public conference call sounds neat. Join in if you can!
