I recently joined the SMART board over on their site. I noticed it lives up to its name - it's geared towards a very independent self-starters. Unfortunately it appears that their board is not very active. My first post got a couple of auto-replies telling me to read the material etc.
I like SR forums because the community is really involved and that helps me. What I don't like about SMART on first impression is that you are doing this alone and don't have a lot of feedback on their site - case in point, you are posting for feedback HERE! All in all I am still muddling through the material and haven't had a chance to say one way or the other. I did want to chime in though because I liked your post and I'm glad you brought it up!
