New Online Portal and Discussion Forum Launched for Residents of Columbia, Missouri

Columbia, MO – Online discussion forums are a great way to network with professionals, fellow hobbyists, or others who share interests, usually involving members from all across the globe. Now a forum for Columbia, MO residents and students, at www.TalkColumbia.com, aims to bring a local “community” feel back to the Web 2.0 world, by providing a free environment for locals to discuss Columbia issues and topics, ranging from the city’s economy to local sports. TalkColumbia.com was launched on August 25th, and has already attracted many students and residents of the area.

In addition to providing a discussion forum, TalkColumbia.com offers an all-around community portal for Columbia, MO residents and students. Not only can they discuss local news and issues, but they can view a listing of upcoming city events, such as concerts and comedy shows. The site also announces birthdays of registered users, and opens in a blog-style format with relevant announcements. As an added bonus, TalkColumbia even provides an arcade area to keep younger residents entertained.

TalkColumbia.com allows Columbia neighbors to meet and interact in a way not previously possible online. Users must register with the community to join discussions and use other features, but registration to www.TalkColumbia.com is free, as are all participation areas once registered.
