I've had my nook since last Christmas and at that time I was registered and went to:
www.nookboards.com/forum. I liked this site. I got several books directly from authors who were conducting a "book club" on this forum. I also got great technical info about my nook. It fit my needs so well that I dropped the Barnes & Noble site for the nook.
Going to this address now brings you to a useless general search page. Something has happened to nookboards.
Within minutes of posting the above message I got the following e-mail from Rachel:
"Some of you may have noticed that Nookboards is down right now. I am very sorry for this. My server people are easy to get a hold of, which is good, but they aren't always the best at figuring out stuff on their own! I paid for the domain name 3 days ago in anticipation that it would be expiring today, yet for some reason they still expired the domain yesterday. I contacted them last night and they admitted the mistake and said it would be fixed and reset in a couple hours. Of course I discovered that this was not done this morning. I can still get on the board as can a few others, but the majority of you cannot. I hope to have this fixed soon. I will send another quick email once I can tell that it has been fixed."
