Hi Greg. I'm new too.

I was reading a review of this site that questioned whether or not men will gather on social networks the way that women do. I think it's possible, it's just that no one has cracked that nut yet. I think it will happen, as more men realize they can discuss important issues of marriage and fatherhood online, the ones who want to learn will come out of the woodwork.

Hi all,

I just found my way here via a post on Cory's blog and quickly registered myself to join a like-minded group. I've got two boys and am married to a tremendous woman and blog about trying to find a healthy balance between work and family. It is great to a group of dads come together like this and I am looking forward to what the future holds as a member.

Welcome to the group Scott. I think that last point that you made is why there might not be a thriving community for guys (yet), as most of us don't like to admit that we don't have the answers.

Derek and I were just talking about this. Does anyone have ideas as to what it would take to inspire men to come together in an online community?

I'm thinking bribes, contests, and a little bit of off-line community building as well.

Sport talk, car talk, betting?

Sound like generalities but... sometimes they're true.

Ya, I think the offline thing is great. MeetUp is awesome in general.

I'm going to post a li'l giveaway here in the forum in a minute. Somebody else seems to be spamming about "Mahjong games" or something but that's just annoying.

It's a huge task to manage and grow a community in general...

My wife introduced me to this site. She is on cafemom. I see a few husbands have been referred over here. Welcome!

Welcome to the group Bryan! Hopefully we will continue to see more dads/husbands heading over and the activity will pick up over here.

Hi and I am a new at home dad. I would like to know what kind of work are you doing at home, because I would like to work from home myself. Please let me know. Thank you

I actually found the site by accident as well. I was wanting to find a site where I could commiserate once I hit my tolerance of staying home. So far that hasn't happened and the site has been gaining a lot of activity lately.
