what are the chances you could make a forum section dedicated to london, and a forum section dedicated birmingham?

i think it would be a big hit.

Thanks for the suggestion - I wonder what you would discuss in these forums that doesn't affect the rest of us? Or are you thinking more along the lines of general, local chat?

what can be discussed in this uk business forum that doesn't affect guys in the states?

*edit* scratch that - it seems this is not just a uk business forum (although the domain name would suggest it)

^silly thing - i typically spend 20 mins editing

ok, the thing is, a random entrepreneur in the uk is likely to have more of a stakehold in the business of another random entrepreneur in the uk than in the business of a random entrepreneur in the usa.

i'm more interested in working with people who have business oriented around "birmingham" than with someone oriented around "london" and i'm sure a random londoner would rather network with other random londoners...etc

hi peter - sorry to bump a half-year-old thread but you should know that these guys have stolen my idea and implemented it on their forum and their memberbase has dramatically increased since! it would be very cool if you could also implement regional forums
