We're not really at the moment Cagney. There's no central place for us to be till they take this place over there. Some of us are just posting stuff on each others pages and blogs.

I'm, v confuzzled  But I think these forummy bits are moving over there at some point - so I'll just ignore the rest of it and use these. I think. Maybe.

Noooooo it's not snooping. That's how you meet people.  If you want a private blog you can change your settings and hide it.... but mines full of the same rubbish I post on here so it's open to the world at the moment, at least until we're all settled in.  Honestly you can go on anyones blog and post away.

Oh.... I should add to this.... you can only see the conversations going on when you click on the title of each individual blog. If you were just reading purely MY entries.... it probably would feel like snooping.

Thanks, Shar, I will try that, I was entering characters in the indicated format, i.e. 5 in a row and I tried numerals and letters. I know, I'll stick in 90210, that should work, lol! Am still puzzling over other things...if I register there, separate to here, I'm not sure what happens to my registered account here when we migrate? Why do I need both if I already migrated here from Groupee? I guess that IE8 beta won't stop the stack errors if IE6 annd 7 are a problem? Mind you, I had thought it was my PC to begin with, as first time I loaded the page, ever, I had a Java error. I take it livecloud has people who test everything in advance of release? I'm used to NHS IT specification|User Acceptance Testing| Bug Fix| Release process, it's my bread and butter. Hence me feeling really stoopid if I can't get this to work!

We're all stumbling around hyper, so don't feel stoopid ... As far as I can see, when this forum is moved over, we'll just have one login ... my login is the same for LiveCloud as it is for here ... It'll all work out ... I'm not going to waste any energy worrying about it ...

LiveCloud is free. There are paid options that you do not have to participate in, but you'll still be able to be registered (you already are if you're posting here  ) and you'll still be able to sit in the gaga forums and post away as much as you want to for free. Yes, the LiveCloud Communities (forums) do "look" different, but all the posts that are currently here will still be there for you, all the same people too. You can participate in as much or as little as you want to, and you don't have to pay to do all the things you do now.

You have your own personal bit of cloud that's like a FB wall, also a blog.... which is a bit like the FB status really, people can relpy etc. You'll have access to this forum when it moves over. There is some other stuff as well which I haven't really explored yet. I haven't looked into the things you pay for but I know it inlcudes the ability to upload unlimited pictures and vids. So I don't think it's something everyone will want anyway.

Cheers again, Shar. I had 3 more attempts on the zip/post code thing. Entering 90210 changed my location to Beverly Hills and even when I edited, my default country was the US. Meh, I'm giving up on it for now, life's too short, eh?

Hi Dave Thanks for confirming that. I have been posting a fair bit trying stuff out over there. Ignoring the posting error and stack bugs for the moment, which I assume are being worked on, is the forum 'format' over there pretty much finalised? I only ask as I feel there are several short comings which might be on your wish list or you are not intending to address at all? Z.

Well, no. There are so many more things to do! Blogs, social groups to join, the Groupee music site, other communities will be coming along as well, people's walls to leave a note on and more. The paid subscriptions bging even more. There are a lot of things that you can do, but if you don't want to, then you don't have to take part in any of it. If you only want to post on the forums, then by all means that is all you need to do.

This is probably going to sound stupid, but have you changed the country too ...? And as ducky says, if you do have a postcode, try putting that in ... I don't have one ...
