    No sure where to post this so here goes:

    I was on a business development program 2 yrs ago and recommended boards.ie as a great place for asking questions & getting good business advice (in particular the Biz/entrepreneurial fora). No one on the course, including instructors were aware of boards at the time.

    Last week I was on a 2 day course thru local enterprise board and one of the same instructors from 2yrs previous was doing a bit on business start-ups etc.
    She recommended Boards and had it included in the handout info (alongside Twitter and Facebook!)

    Go boards!

    I went into a mobile phone shop when I couldn't get my APN to work despite having had the phone unlocked by the shop and calling the new network's tech support.

    The guy took the phone, opened up the Mobiles forum on boards which has an APN sticky and had it working in 5 minutes. Total facepalm when he did it since I knew about that sticky from a problem years ago. He didn't charge me and said "Next time, give Boards.ie a shot - it's a grand site" :D

    I continue to use Boards.ie as a reference and resource for all manner of things on a day to day basis, particularly around moderation, rules and community policy. It really is (and continues to be) one of the industry leaders in that regard and the influence in a lot of what happens online in Ireland, whether people would admit to it or not.

    I foresee a sitewide announcement to try and track down the phone guy.

    I had a PM from a German guy in Germany who'd been told by his German doctor that he needed a circumcision. The German doctor told the German guy in Germany that he could get more information about the whole thing from this thread on boards.ie

    I like to think that this contributed towards the German decision to bail us out.

    Ireland: You're welcome.
