It’s been several weeks’ coming, but we’re super-excited to officially announce the new Symbian-Guru Forum! We’ve spent countless hours preparing, and we really feel as though this will help grow the community here by making it easier for you to keep track of various conversations, and also enable you to chat about things that might not necessarily be posted on the front page.
You can get to the Symbian-Guru Forum through the link at the top of the page, and you’ll also see that every story is linked to the forum. Comments posted in the forum are automatically pulled to the front page, as well, so that it’s really easy to follow conversations, no matter where you start.
Currently, it’s also possible to comment on a post without registering to the forum. We did this to allow for better conversation, since we know some of you only comment once or twice a year. However, we’d love for you to be a registered member, and as we finish tweaking the forum over the next few weeks, we’ll be able to offer special privileges and discounts for registered members.
The forum is also completely mobilized, which is awesome. If you’re browsing Symbian-Guru.com on your phone (no special URL needed, just http://www.Symbian-Guru.com), the comments behave just like they do on the main site. There’s also a link to get straight to the forum, as well, if you’d rather see what other conversations are going on.
A big thanks to the select few readers who were given a sneak peak at this new community, and helped us find bugs and other things. Also, I want to extend a personal thanks to Brandon over at N95Users.com, as he is mainly responsible for the comment integration working so well.
You can click here to get to the new forum, and remember, keep it clean, folks. Pseudofinn, in addition to contributing reviews and news posts, will be the head moderator at Symbian-Guru Forum. If you’re interested in volunteering as a moderator, you can email him directly at Pseudofinn@Symbian-Guru.com to enter your application.
