After reading many of the posts here I thought I would sign up and share my experience with the wonderful community here. I was once heavilyobease, for more than 15 years of my life and trying various diet/pills and programs to try and loose fat I finally was guided to a weight loss program that was the 'God' of programs for me. Just one month of using this fat loss program I was able to see promising results, I still had energy (unlike many of the other programs out there) and my motivation to continue to loose the fat only increased. My life changed, I transformed into a new human. My self-esteem rose as did my social activity as you could imagine. I guess you all want to know the site. Here it is: http://www.slimburnfat.com Some of you may be skeptical, all I can do is express that this fat loss program is solid, no fluff truth. If you would like to contact me, just send me a Private Message. Wishing you all the very best for the future ahead. If you are still unsure all I can say is JUST DO IT, whether you choose the same program as me or find something else that works better for yourself. I understand that the first step that the first step is the most difficult. Smile!

Wetpaint looks great. They've done a really good job of the combination. Just having it on a single page changes the dynamic. And the nav is good too. Pibb is cool too. Very light and fast, lots of cool features. Tangler have solved the SEO issue and that's coming out in our next release. It's a key one that we wanted to do right, so I'm glad it's finally in. Key thing for us is that there is 100's of ways to talk and there should be more. Wetpaint solves one of the key challenges, I think, of Wikis which is 'what happens when your content doesn't fit the 'one perfect page' philosophy? What if the content is the best we have now and but needs solid debate. Again, job well done. Hey guys, Mick from Tangler here.

When I called them to remove it, they just said it was a user who uploaded the games and they couldn't do anything about it. However I found out about the wiki from a wetpaint sales rep spamming me, so obviously it's not just the user who creates the wiki.

Once you do you'll never go back to old "reload the page" forums -- it's a generation ahead. I guess the others aren't doing it yet cause it too hard (half joking). But really I think they are on to something cool, but it'll take time to get it right. Good on them for innovating though. And Tangler have already said they are working on the SEO fix.

So you won't be able to improve your SERP position by allowing your visitors to interact on your site and to add your-topic-relevant content to your site - if you use Tangler. PhpBB and similar engines are much better from this perspective.
