Google gives many links too:

http://forum.snitz.com/
and so on...
Each of the above TSG threads had various thoughts, ideas, opinions, suggestions, and the such. As I and a few others are interested in the creation of a new forum [for our HS alma mater], and have little desire to spend much $$$ in a host and really don't know best means how to start such, thought here is to start a thread that combines the best of the above threads, and add updated thoughts into one thread - for the most part seems that the above 5 threads, for example, are all asking quite similar question - and getting at times quite different directions to go to...
