So for the last 2 days I have been redoing my desktop computer. I need it fixed bad as I am going to be working on redoing Rentmydn (using php/mysql) and need a decent html editor on it. Last month it went down totally. Luckily, I had an extra partition that i was able to install an OS on and recover all my pictures and other important files. However, the other users of my desktop took forever to back their own junk up.
I instead of reinstalling the same boring Windows XP I went to XP Professional Retail. So its so good. With all the upgrades I have done to this computer its been a pain to find all the drivers and then reinstall precious software. I think as of this morning the computer is 90% (waiting for visual studio express 2008 to finish installing).
I have been so busy that I only get to spend a fraction of the time I have working on this project. Starting Monday (the 12th) I will be putting forth more time for this project. I have several people interested and need to get them information vital to the project, so that we may get started.
Whats going to happen is this: I am going to be setting up a public forum for the Social Business Project. I have been working on a detailed requirements for the development of the project, as well as projected business plan. I believe a business plan is extremely important if you want a project to get off the ground.
The forum is up. This is my first time setting up a forum and being an admin. I was recommend to use Simple Machines Forum — SMF by Prathik over at the Tech36 blog. So far its pretty easy to use. The set up (I did it with out Fantastico) was pretty easy.
I guess I got some work to do with the forum. There should be something up as a homepage at: www.communalbusiness.net today I hope.
I am having a hell of a time trying to find the most perfect .com domain name for the actual project. I have a few ideas still but my favorite is parked (of course) as a typo for 50 cent (selling 50 cent ringtones).
Hopefully by the time I get back from Coos Bay, OR (going there to visit some friends and take my daughter crabbing and tide pooling for her first time) I will have some more ideas.

Good forum, change the theme and get it running and it'll be on the right track. I see you haven't come online for a very long time. I did announce that I had a small code ready for your project, now I am eagerly waiting for you to get the domain and all, then a simple forum can be installed and as soon as it gets popular, change the code with one made specifically for the website.
