Discussion forums, newsgroups and chat rooms can be very useful for finding the information and resources your business needs. Discussion forums and newsgroups have archives of the questions and replies posted by users of the service. If you search these archives, you will often find that others have asked the same question, and an answer has been posted. If you still need help, try posting your question. |
