    Jeremy here, and as the name would suggest, I'm from the Chicago area.

    I've often said my hobbies include "computers and all things related".

    I was told by someone I should get more hobbies.

    I showed them the dozens of computer/tech books on my shelf and asked them to think about what they just said:)

    Came across these forums by way of the tracker tool. Looking forward to some good discussion.

    Hi guy

    I was going to post to one of your entries re finding this spam free forum by accident but didn't so here it is

    When Darryn [from Ireland you may not know him as you are not on the memberlist there] started his chat just over a year ago it was good and spam free then unfortunately he sold it to a commercially interested company [I'm not saying Shawn is not but has a more pragmatic approach] and the blinking ads arrived. I almost left then but luckily I didn't as Shawn arrived and soon after developed Keyword Tracker - a quality tool if ever there was one.

    I looked at two other quality forums - but unfortunately they try to combine two languages in one forum and it just doesn't work for me.

    Then Shawn started his email forum [like londonperlmongers] and the suggestions said to do it this way and, here we are. Shawn acted immediately and we have the possibilty of quality.

    So don't hang back guy "favourite it"



    :D

    ta-da! The second Peon has been elevated to the rank of "Grunt" (GuyFromChicago).

    Okay, I promise, that's the last time I announce someone is now a Grunt. hehe

    I was thinking IdiotFromChicago. It would go well with my last blog title.

    On second thought, I'm keeping GuyFromChicago. To hell with the clone GFC!
