New Discussion Feature

Hi folks! About a month ago, we added a discussion feature to SoBiz10.com.  You may have already seen it on the website.  I'm an idiot and forgot to blog about this sooner. :/

The idea behind adding a discussion feature was to create another avenue of increasing interactivity between merchants and consumers on SoBiz10 and also to create a larger feel of community on the website.  On the discussion forum, users can ask questions, share experiences, and comment on other discussions.  If you have something on your mind, go on and let 'er rip here.  Also, another reason we added the discussion feature is because we'd like to hear more from you about how we're doing.  This is VERY important to us.  Go on, compliment the hell out of us! A bit more seriously, we'd love to hear from our merchants and subscribers about what we can do to make the site better, what we're currently doing that you like and want us to keep doing, and ANY other suggestions you may have.  Trust me, you won't hurt my feelings if you wanna share something with me that I can do better. :)

Below is an screenshot of a discussion with replies:


As you can tell by the discussion our friend Viraj started, he is an incredibly brilliant and handsome man.

We believe this discussion feature is just one of the many features that sets SoBiz10 apart from the 600+ group coupon companies out there today.  Many of these companies only offer group coupons, which is great (we obviously think it's a novel concept), but the whole idea of SoBiz10 is to create a place where the interaction between a merchant and a consumer DOESN'T cease to exist once the coupon is handed over to the merchant. Our social network and now our discussion feature are great ways for merchants to keep their customers engaged, and great ways for consumers' voices to be heard.
