 Exposure to a larger knowledge base would be limited, as companies find new
and exciting ways to deal with the daily threats of the internet. I cannot
view or contribute to forums, due to the companies use of Smartfilter, which
provided me the below message when I attempted to view the sample link:

What TechNet is now is a listserv: an email gets sent to the main address
and is redistributed to all the subscribers mailboxes.

A message board is a forum contained on a Web site. Threads are labeled and
self-contained; in other words, you can pick and choose which threads you
want to read/post to. It's easier to navigate and to quickly refer back to
subjects you may have missed. And while the big benefit of a listserv is
that the mail comes to you, you can always set up your personal account
within the message board to do the same.

Here's a sample: http://amazingforums.com/forum/SAMPLE/forum.html

I would suggest that IPC switch TechNet from a listserv to a message board.
The volume and diversity of threads is much more conducive to a message
board. Mike
