Implementing a message board with my blog

    I'm interested in integrating an online forum [message board], for my upcoming blog and I need some competent advice. Here are my questions:

    Should I integrate and launch the message board at the same time as my blog, or should I wait?

    How is a message board [essentially user-generated content] grown? How is that sense of 'community' cultivated?

    What are some ways to monetize a message board besides the obvious AdSense approach?

    Does anyone have any credible resources for developing and growing a forum?

    Thanks - your input is greatly appreciated!
