We're all here using this forum, but does anyone here have a forum, blog or website of their own? Let us know what the site is, and we can all go and check it out

I currently do not, however, I've run a few sites in the past. A few of them did pretty well, and I eventually sold them, but most of my projects seem to die out after a while. That just goes to show that it isn't easy to run a site, at all!

I use Tumblr a lot. Though I wouldn't consider that a true blog. I basically just reblog and look at all of the amazing gifs people create. The link to my Tumblr is Here

The link to my Tumblr is HereI've never used Tumblr...but it looks really cool and you're right it's almost blog-like just with more pictures! I loved that post with... grimmsen10.tumblr.com/ Those surreal pictures...awesomeness!

I run my own website. I should really put the link in my profile when I remember to set it all up correctly.
As for tumblr i've only ever used it for Uni purposes. I do use twitter a lot though.

I run a fun website called Joketwist. Its pretty unique and gets a quite good following on twitter/facebook, also hits to the website too. Its many a project that allows me not to be bored during my spare time.

I used to have a Zelda forum, but it didn't do so well, so I closed it down. Not worth the effort, imo. xD

I run my own website. I actually started it back in 2011 as just a wordpress.com blog and then forgot about it. I then found it in December of 2013 and decided to start it back up. Since then I've moved it to it's own host and grown it quite a bit. We still don't get a ton of traffic, but are numbers are slowly ticking up. It does take a lot of work, that's for sure.

Yeah, I own my own website. I've been running websites since I first got into forums about ten years or so ago. I have one I'm currently running and have been since late January. I'd share the link; but, I don't think it'd be fair or right.

I currently run a new discussion community that was open since September of 2013, but sadly we closed and reopened about a month later. Check it out if you'd like: discussionhq.com/

I currently have two forums that I own and I am the head administrator for both of them. It isn't easy to run a forum but I try my hardest on them. It does take a lot of work for a site to be successful.

I run several websites of my own currently. I have a forum that I just started. A personal blog that I'm in the process of working on right now. I also have another website that I'm working on where I showcase all my graphic art, poetry and other writing.

I have a general discussion forum. Not sure if we're allowed to link here or not so I won't but we recently celebrated our one year anniversary. We have a good group of core members that I love chatting with so it's going pretty well (so far *touch wood*)

I started with a forum, however this went bad due to more work and inactivity. After some time started blogging, but this is too hard for developing and ended with non profit. I am looking to finish one of the site to be popular.

And I have a few. One of them is listed in my signature - The Atlantic Forums, which is a service of my company, Atlantic Computing Services (you can get to one from the other). My wife is the webmistress for the main company, while I administer the forums. They are nominally for technical assistance, but really, with the pandemic, I've been using them as my online social vehicle. I'm an extrovert - the pandemic was really rough for me in that regard. And there's also Atomic Trivia, at atomictrivia.us That's the page for my pub trivia business. And we do online games from there! It's all on Zoom, on Mondays at 7pm Eastern (which is currently 2300 UTC) and it's free! You can get a team together and jump right in. (And thank you to Sharon for letting me plug my businesses here...)

Almost as long as Serene Distraction A big congratulations to both of you, it's certainly impressive. It's actually quite cool to see some of the old posts and the discussions that were taking place years and years ago.

I agree! I was certainly in a whole different state of mind back in 2005 and I think that definitely plays a big part of why I've been so attached to this community.
