This page provides announcements and important notices from me regarding this ETX site.

I have been asked many times over the years to start an online user forum. I have been testing the Livefyre "comments system" since mid-March as a "reader comments" section on my Cassiopeia Observatory reports. Livefyre has many nice capabilities and it is currently free (for the features I use). We'll try this out and see how it goes. If you have any problems with the comments system please Email Me.

Initially the forum will be unmoderated and all comments will appear immediately when a user posts them. I will change that only if it becomes necessary. You can reply to existing comments or start a new comment. Please limit entries to the same topics as you would for email to me. This first "Live Forum" will be for any discussions on those topics. If this initial Live Forum is successful, I may do live forums on individual topics, such as ETX, AutoStar, and Astrophotography, in the future. I have no intention to replace existing forums (ETXAstro Yahoo Group, Cloudy Nights, etc.), so feel free to use those as alternatives.

The "Live Forum" link is on the ETX Site home page in the Feedback section. Or click the link below:
