There is one really great one.

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/basicstamps/messagesearch?query=.

I think that one is so well supported that there are no others that
started to take up the slack.

If you want to search the archives, visit pgoffline.com to get
pgoffline.

It will pull the entire list of over 46,000 posts so you can search
it on your hard disk.

Also google LOSA to see the List of Stamp Applications.

What are you looking for, specifically, that is not being handled by the
BASIC Stamps group on Yahoo?

Well, Im looking for a regular forum type thing rather than this
'group' thing. Actually I am only familiar with forums and not the way
the Yahoo Groups are organized.

By "Forum" I mean something powered by 'vBulletin' or 'Invision Power
Board' just to name a few.

Im not saying this group is bad or anything. Please dont get me wrong.

As far as I know, this is the best BasicStamp forum.
It is moderated (and answers come fast) by Parallax.

There are a few other Stamp-based spin-off boards,
run by Al Williams, Peter Anderson, and a few others
whose names escape me right now.

But, besides www.parallax.com, this is the place
to ask on-line questions of the BasicStamp community.

OK, since I am now aware that this is the best forum, I would like to
draw everyone's attention to a post that no one responded to called
"LCD Screen from TI-83 Plus Silver Edition". If anyone has any info
about that post that would be greatly appreciated.

Marcus.

Actually, Dave Mucha did respond. In my opinion, his reponse was
both appropriate and useful. In case you were looking for a more
succinct response here is one: it appears that no one has documented
an attempt to connect the TI-83 hardware to a Stamp. Perhaps you
could blaze a trail and document the results of your effort.

Just to be clear, we (AWC) do not run any competing Basic Stamp boards. I do
maintain the unofficial Basic Stamp FAQ at
http://www.wd5gnr.com/stampfaq.htm. We also have a Yahoo group for CPLD/FPGA
stuff, but not for the Basic Stamp.

There have been attempts by a few folks over the years to start some sort of
Web-based Stamp discussion, but the sheer size of this group makes that not
terribly useful. I'm not aware of any of these that have survived.

If you plug "basic stamp" into Yahoo Groups search, there are a few
Stamp-related sites (including basicstamps2 that says it is run by Parallax
but only has 178 members -- what is that?) There is occasional mention of
the Stamp at www.nutsvolts.com. But nothing like this list.

Hello,

When I saw this post earlier in the week, it was exciting to know that
we were cooking up a new web-based forum with dotnetBB software.

The new forum is now available at http://forums.parallax.com

We hope to see you there soon. In order to view the forums, you will
need to register first.

Best regards,

Odd forum, I went to the register page and all it said was that I was
under 13 years old.

Does this use some sort of Java or Flash ?

Personally I have been Flash FREE for over two years and found that
Java has too many flavors to be secure.

I just registered too. My screen had 2 choices - 13+ and under 13.

The registration process generates a confirmation email with a URL you
need to go to. But I continually time out to that site (IP 10.100.10.18).

10.100.10.18 is a local non routable address. Just change it to
forums.parallax.com (keep the rest of the line the same; just replace the
10.100.10.18 address) and all will be well. I already pinged Erik about
this.

I just registered too. My screen had 2 choices - 13+ and under 13.

The registration process generates a confirmation email with a URL you need
to go to. But I continually time out to that site (IP 10.100.10.18).

Eric,

Will these new fora require users to poll the fora for information, or can
they be configured to push the messages to an email reader.

Hello,

When I saw this post earlier in the week, it was exciting to know that
we were cooking up a new web-based forum with dotnetBB software.

Just to be clear, we (AWC) do not run any competing Basic Stamp boards.
I do maintain the unofficial Basic Stamp FAQ at
http://www.wd5gnr.com/stampfaq.htm. We also have a Yahoo group for
CPLD/FPGA stuff, but not for the Basic Stamp.

There have been attempts by a few folks over the years to start some
sort of Web-based Stamp discussion, but the sheer size of this group
makes that not terribly useful. I'm not aware of any of these that have
survived.

If you plug "basic stamp" into Yahoo Groups search, there are a few
Stamp-related sites (including basicstamps2 that says it is run by
Parallax but only has 178 members -- what is that?) There is occasional
mention of the Stamp at www.nutsvolts.com. But nothing like this list.

As far as I know, this is the best BasicStamp forum.
It is moderated (and answers come fast) by Parallax.

There are a few other Stamp-based spin-off boards, run by Al Williams,
Peter Anderson, and a few others whose names escape me right now.

But, besides www.parallax.com, this is the place to ask on-line
questions of the BasicStamp community.

Thanks Al and Erik for pointing out the issue with the private IP
addr. I should have realized that myself (used to do TCP/IP admin work!).

But, the confirmation still doesn't work for me after providing the
correct host name. The URL works and takes me to the main forum page,
but if I try and login it still says

"Your account has not yet been verified by e-mail"

No where on the page did it say anthing like "confirmed". Tried with
Netscape 7 and IE 6.

If this is just my problem I won't pollute this forum any further and
will deal directly with the support folks.

Thanks.

Harry

It is the answer I expected, but not the answer I wanted.

Would you explore possibilities of making the forum able to push the
messages to an email client?

Daniel,
We can look into it but I can't make any promises. It's intended to be
web-based.
I want you to know that the change to the new system was weighed and
calculated for a long time.

Eric,

It is the answer I expected, but not the answer I wanted.

Would you explore possibilities of making the forum able to push the
messages to an email client?

Best Regards,
Daniel

Daniel,
Good question. The forum is web-based.
You may receive notices of new message postings but you won't be able to
read the content as before in the Yahoo groups.

I hope that answers your question.

Eric,

Will these new fora require users to poll the fora for information, or
can they be configured to push the messages to an email reader.

Hello,

When I saw this post earlier in the week, it was exciting to know that
we were cooking up a new web-based forum with dotnetBB software.

The new forum is now available at http://forums.parallax.com

We hope to see you there soon. In order to view the forums, you will
need to register first.

Subject: RE: [basicstamps] Re: Basic Stamp forums?


Just to be clear, we (AWC) do not run any competing Basic Stamp boards.
I do maintain the unofficial Basic Stamp FAQ at
http://www.wd5gnr.com/stampfaq.htm. We also have a Yahoo group for
CPLD/FPGA stuff, but not for the Basic Stamp.

There have been attempts by a few folks over the years to start some
sort of Web-based Stamp discussion, but the sheer size of this group
makes that not terribly useful. I'm not aware of any of these that have
survived.

If you plug "basic stamp" into Yahoo Groups search, there are a few
Stamp-related sites (including basicstamps2 that says it is run by
Parallax but only has 178 members -- what is that?) There is occasional
mention of the Stamp at www.nutsvolts.com. But nothing like this list.

Regards,

Al Williams

As far as I know, this is the best BasicStamp forum.
It is moderated (and answers come fast) by Parallax.

There are a few other Stamp-based spin-off boards, run by Al Williams,
Peter Anderson, and a few others whose names escape me right now.

But, besides www.parallax.com, this is the place to ask on-line
questions of the BasicStamp community.

Daniel -

I'm WITH YOU 100% ! That would be a requirement for me to continue participation, as I mentioned to Erik offlist. I just don't have the computer capacity to keep a third browser active all the time.

:/ The mailing list style of this forum was one of the big draws for me.
