What the Hell is 6pins?

Two guys I’ve known for a while, Jon and David, have joined together to form a band site the likes of which have never been seen, and they called themselves Tenacious D 6pins Forums.
6pins is a forum geared at professional web developers looking to improve their craft and share their knowledge.
We are geared toward the development side of the web. This means the majority of threads won’t be things like “How do you like my clan design?!”, and threads along those lines. We want users to share and help each other on the journey through the web.
I’m going to try to leave my opinions on the design out of this thread (it’s all “web 2.0″ish but I’m sort of a 1.0 design-minded guy) and just focus on the quality content and memberbase. I’ve known most of the guys posting on this forum for a long while, and they are all very knowledgable about what they’re doing. Whether it’s Jon sharing great examples of guerilla marketing or Digit discussing how to create an active forum community you will most likely find something here worth reading.
The forum has been “live” for a few weeks now but it has gone public just over the last couple of days. Already the forum has over 100 members and almost 1,000 posts. Not too shabby. And with the kind of content being shared over there I only see it growing.
So if you get a chance head on over to 6pins and take a look around. I’m registered as “feros” (which is my usual forum name) and will probably be posting fairly regularly.

I’ve been registered there a while now. I’m starting to post more frequently. I think it’s my new home!
Thanks for the mention, Matt!
Looking forward to seeing some of your readers there (and you!).
I registered on the site the other day when you made this post, and I just started posting. Seems like a nice place so far! :)
I had been reading up on this a while ago on davids blog, didn’t know it had been put up yet… registered.
There’s just so many forums like that out there
The overall design is very good though
