    You will now notice the bar of social media links across the bottom of each public thread. It looks like this:
    Screenshot from 2015-02-01 13:17:47.png
    From left to right: Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google+, TUMBLR, Pintrest, and Email.

    Clicking one of these buttons shared the thread you are currently reading via the site you choose (or by email, if you clicked the email button).

    Little is actually shared-- typically just a picture, a few words from the beginning of the fist posts, and a clickable link to come join us here at FHC.

    Kudos to Scotty, glad he is putting us out there. Word of mouth and social media may eventually take over and it will run itself. Does anyone know what the other top wood forums memberships are?

    Wow I didnt realize AS had that many folks.

    A smaller more obscure one that has all the stuff but on a smaller scale and a forum I have been on for 10+ years is the forestry forum

    There is sawhawgz as well, but not being a member means I can't see their numbers.

    I remember back when my brother and I were in college and you had to be in an ivy league school to be on FB. Then you had to just have an .edu email to get on. Thought it was stupid then. Dont think its as stupid now but kind of boarder line. I may get one one day. But everyone is on it now. And the cool kids dont use it as much, so do I want to be on it now? Haha!

    I tried to sign up at saw hogs but was unsuccessful. Not sure if I ever succeeded or not?

    I used it to keep in touch with friends and family, but I don't really do much with it that isn't FHC related.

    I am talking back like first year or so it was around. Zuckerburg was still in school then.

    My brother went to high school with him. They used it in highschool. That was the first place it was used.

    Used there and like harvard. I dont really know all the details. Just my brother was there that first year and said back then it was the next big thing.

    I am really surprised at what it has become, I remember joining way back when, thinking it was crap and then coming back later when it got better.

    He he. Auto correct. You got it before I fixed it. I promise that wasnt on purpose. Funny, ironic and odd it was though.
