What's the best way to answer and ask Flash questions on the site? A Forum or Blog?

I get questions emailed to me daily on my tutorials and other Adobe Flash questions. Up until now I’ve done my best to answer them back with details in reply emails. I noticed though that many of the questions are similar and I’m confident that the answers to those questions could benefit others who have the same question or problem that aren’t sending an emails, but are still looking for answers.

It’s this reason why I originally wanted to setup a forum to handle those kinds of questions. Someone could pose a question to the community about Adobe Flash and it was my goal to have people help one another with concerns. Particularly those questions that I don’t have answers for.

I setup a forum page originally. It probably wasn’t working properly. I had no idea what I was doing at the time and the forum got 0 interest. Things are different this time and going forward I was wondering what everyone thinks about creating a new forum to handle questions and answers or is it better to handle those issues as blog posts? Both forums and blog posts are interactive and give the chance to get a discussion going on the topic. I have my personal opinions on both, but I really wanted to get your opinion on the difference and how you would prefer to getting answers to questions. So please answer this quick survey with how you feel the better way is to ask, answer, learn from questions about Flash and web development.

If you have any specific questions about this please leave a comment as well. Any feedback would be appreciated. I just want to make this as good as an experience for the viewers of the website as I possibly can. Thanks.

New Integrated Blog

Posted: March 25th, 2010 in Blog, Website Notes and News.

With the new system I’ve built the site on, I can now finally integrate my blog directly in to the site. I previously had a blogspot blog set up kind of as a companion site, but having a separate system made it difficult to remember to check and update. It’s hard to track the traffic and where it’s going from there, and overall didn’t match the feel and brand of the rest of the site.

This way the blog works together more with the site, which I’m very excited about. So please feel free to use it, read it, leave me great comments and I’ll make sure to answer back. I’ll be adding different aspects to the blog from time to time, so please be patient and come back often.
