			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Communities thrive on communication. Newspapers come out once a day, or once a week. Local television has to cram the news into thirty second sound bites. But that&#8217;s not how people communicate. People like to talk in real time.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.MontCoForum.com">MontCoForum.com</a> is a place for conversations about the Montgomery County, PA communities that you live and work in.</p>
<p>The local forums are focused on individual MontCo communities. They are a good place to ask your neighbors questions about the place you live. They are also a great place to share your own ideas and experiences with others. Exchanging ideas is a great way to form new relationships within your community.</p>
<p>There are general forums on topics ranging from serious things like health and education to fun things like entertainment and restaurants. If you have any suggestions for other topics, stop by the <a href="http://www.montcoforum.com/feedback-f30.html">Feedback Forum</a><a href="mailto:info@montcoforum.com"></a>. We&#8217;d love to hear your ideas.</p>
<p>The inspiration for this site comes from <a href="http://www.phillyblog.com/philly/" target="_blank">PhillyBlog.com</a>. The active community forums have been extremely helpful to me. They helped me feel informed about ongoing issues in my neighborhood when I lived there. They helped me find quality service providers like doctors, accountants, contractors, and yoga teachers. They helped me stay connected. And best of all, the forum content is always there for new community members to search through and get up to speed.</p>
<p>So go ahead and <a href="http://www.montcoforum.com/ucp.php?mode=register">create a member account</a>. Start a new conversation or jump into one. Get connected.</p>
