There's all kinds of off-the-shelf forum packages - what really needs to be tweaked, other than setting up the forums?
Do you have a domain and all that in mind already? Or would they be hosted here? (If so - why not just add an industry-specific "room" here?)
I want to start my own page (at the moment I have no Idea how to call it) with Forum, chat, blog, linklist, wiki etc.
The whole thing should be funded with Advertisments etc.
Ive allready made an overview of the sites structure, it would be fine if someone could give me a few suggestions for subforums etc.
