As a TB member I've got access to it & had a 'sneak peek'. It's going to be a very useful forum & there are good threads already created.
To make it really successful/welcoming to new FTers (or established ones that might not be aware of some functions), I encourage everyone to stop by the Information Desk & add input, especially via the 'wiki' features.
jackal, scoow & canarsie have gotten a good start but some of the info still needs more information added.
Once Information Desk is truly up & running, I think it's truly going to be a valuable resource for FTers! And a reminder - the Information Desk forum is a 'flame-free' forum.
Cheers.
