I found this site in an article called "Looking for Answers Online" in the magazine "Good Times" - and I am glad I came here to check it out!


What did the magazine say about this site? Now I'm curious.

Hello, Craven deK:
I will quote from the magazine article: "www.able2know...." is a free 'knowledge exchange'. This is a moderated site that counts on the expertise of volunteers to answer questions. The site's menu of topics is quite diverse. For example, their Other Languages link would be ideal for those planning to vacation in a foreign country. Or try the Fun & Games section, the perfect place to post your verbal brainteasers. A feature of note is the Debate link, where you can participate in ongoing discussions from Philosophy to Religion. Don't miss their Aging link for some interesting age-related postings."
The reason they mention the latter is because the magazine is directed towards those in retirement.

Interesting, that's the first mention of A2K in a hardcopy publication that I am aware of. Thanks for letting us know.

You're most welcome! The magazine mentioned, by the way, is a Canadian publication.

I came here by way of abuzz, via the realm.
I think I got an invite to the realm after the moderators left abuzz, soo long ago.

Re: How did you come to know about this site?
Good Mornin'! :wink: I came upon this site this mornin' after seein' it listed in my "Favorites" Folder, & when I got here, looked around, scanned over some posts, I thought, "This is the place for ME"! Smile Back in the year 2000, (Feb.28th. to be exact), I logged onto the World Wide Web for the 1st. time... That alone seems to be surreal, for I never dreamed in a million yrs. that I would learn as much as what I have over this soon to be 4 yrs., but I've enjoyed it all. Some of the things I've learned have been a tremendous help, some have been a pain in the "patoot"! LOL However, there have been times that I wished I didn't know some of the things that I do about the Web, but all in all, lookin' back over the yrs., it's been fun, educational, & I've met some great Folks from all around the World! I now have my own Website, (which I cannot & will not, make reference to here, for I read the rules! LOL) :wink: , but that alone has been a tremendous accomplishment for me, & rewarding as well, just not monetarily, for it's all free. LOL Confused Hmmmm, wonder what's up w/that? I reckon I'm a givin' type of person, & the reward, well, it's knowing my Members are happy! (Last account I had of that, they are! LOL) At any rate, my name's Patt, (yes, that's 2 t's...), & you Folks may remember a Site called AskMe.com... That's where I got my start to answerin' people's requests of knowledge in certain fields & areas. I loved it, & ranked right up there w/the best of 'em! <Patt's tootin' her horn here just a tad>... LOL But, this mornin' when I came upon this Site, I thought: "Well, what have I got to lose"? So here I am... Last night, my Hubby was on for quite awhile, & this mornin' I checked his pretty cool Bookmarks, & this was 1 of them! I now see why he Bookmarked it! Thanks so much for the welcome email, & I hope to make some friends here as well... Take care all, & have a grand weekend! :wink:
Respectfully Posted,
Patt

How I found your site.
[QUOTE][CODE] Embarrassed Shocked Idea Cool Question
Can you see how much fun I am having? This is all very new to me. I learned of this site thru an old Abuzz buddy. I understand that your participants are quite intelligent, and that most of the subjects discussed are most interesting. So, I hope I fit in.
Thank you.
