yo was just wondering out of curiosity. With all webmaster forums around the web today, how hard would it be to create a new one that would be successful?
Not too hard, there has been a new one www.enjoymentlab.com and it is doing fantastic by the looks of things!
Mine is working out good so far. I don't have a lot of members, but the members I do have are coming back to use it. It can only get better.
I don't think it's terribly difficult, just a huge financial barrier + it takes years for success... two things most people don't have.
