I hope those browsing this blog page will check out Monsterland Forums, a message board I started about twenty six months ago, and dedicated to my great fondness for Godzilla, giant monsters, and sci-fi/horror movies. Our community is still small, with only about a dozen active members out of our membership scroll of 109 people. The site has been experiencing slow but consistently sustained growth, both in posting activity and in members. The site will be undergoing a format change soon to Zetaboards format. We have a "Casual Chat" and "Sports" forum, as well as forums for fan submissions(written, artwork and video) and "Ultraman".
