free software forum

[SiliconJon]

I have started a new forum just for free software. It's not that extensive yet, but it growing. I would like to ask if anyone would want to register to add any free software they enjoy. You don't have to register to view or reply, but you do have to register to start a topic such as listing a new program.

nice. though the "warez" in the title mislead me initially.

 

[Nothinman]

Yea, why would you call it HouseofWarez if you plan on restricting the discussion to legally free software?

 

[SiliconJon]

If successful, I am going to redefine the term warez by making legal use of its most popular aspect: free software. Or something.

www.houseofwarez.com is the project. The forum is the current brewery, and alternative interface for the forum-savvy and replacement until the site is more complete.

Good luck on that... And Jesus is the Kool-Aid Man.

No, the Kool-Aid man is Jesus, the boxer from brooklyn.

School's almost out, after which I will be completing redesigning the main site. But the forum will remain the same. I will first be trying a wiki approach to the main site. And the forum will also be at least basically integrated into the main site. I had thought about using SiliconJon.com for the site, but I have other plans for that domain name...so HouseOfWarez it will likely remain. I have had my own self-doubts about using the term warez, but I'll just have to offend the Computer Term gods.
