What is an online forum?
An online forum is a space online where people with similar interests can hold discussions. In particular, the Technology in AA, TIAA Forum facilitates discussions among those with an interest in how technology is being used, or might be used, to help carry the message.
Unlike social media sites, an online discussion forum is arranged into discussions of topics started by members. Once started, other members can choose to enter that discussion by responding. Still other members may choose to follow the conversation, or not. A topic conversation can be started by any statement or question that might serve to start a discussion.
Online discussion forums differ from chat rooms in that conversations can happen over time; not everyone in the discussion needs to be present at the same time.
The TIAA Forum is organized into a number of categories, in which members can post their questions or discussion prompts and reply to each other. Members can share multimedia content as well as text, and forum posts are often longer than those on social media sites or in chat rooms.
The Forum is for A.A. members to share about using technology for accomplishing the primary purpose of A.A. We range from technology giants to complete novices just interested in the subject. All are AA members or support AA technology, and all are welcome.
