If you haven't yet spent any time amidst our well-regarded discussion board community, you're doing yourself a disservice. We have thousands of boards dedicated to individual companies and investment strategies, and all kinds of non-financial topics, too.
Here is a tiny smattering of the kinds of things you'll run across on Fool boards. (As you'll see, members choose nicknames, so don't be thrown by such nom de plumes as "goofyhoofy.") These are some examples of our "Post of the Day" selections:

Discussion boards can be great places to get answers to your questions and to learn about companies that interest you. Plus, you can instantly communicate with people around the globe. As the multicultural animatronics sing at Disney World, "It's a small world after all," and the Internet has made it quite a bit smaller.
