I think I have done this, the niche would be people who love to do word search puzzles like me and my family.

How do I go about doing this?

Again good suggestion but I need to know how I
would find out this type of information.

Where can a find a list of all these "discussion boards" ? Is there such a thing? How do you locate discussion groups?
