You know the Drupal.org forums, right?
http://drupal.org/forum
If you haven't posted there, you've at least visited to seek answers. Many come to the forums, but not all leave satisfied. There are some who find the favor of helpful Drupal masters, and some who plaintively cry "No answer? Anybody?" to the uncaring electronic winds. Some who succeeded, some who suffered in vain. (I'd send a prize to whoever first identifies the obscure Kinks lyrics reference, but in the age of Google, such tests of knowledge are defunct.)
There are real treasures buried in the forums, if you can find them. It's not easy. First, the forum architecture itself isn't too friendly – that's a topic for another post. Second, it's so huge – the posts run into the gabillions. And third, new posts come at the pace of Gauss gun needles – turn around, and there are another few dozen new entries. Who can keep up?
None, maybe. But while your friendly Drupal Ace has hardly been a part of the forums from their start, I do make the attempt to follow new entries. At least in the monster, catch-all "Post-installation" section (http://drupal.org/forum/22) – or whatever it is I get from the feed http%3A%2F%2Fdrupal.org%2Ftaxonomy%2Fterm%2F22%2F0%2Ffeed (I forget how I set that up. And why does the link, copied from Google Reader, look so wacked?)
There's no way I can read all of the posts there. I do skim all the new titles every few days, and pick out the ones that look like good newbie fodder, or appear to address my own interests. I no doubt miss a lot of good stuff through my quick skimming, but I catch a lot too.
What I'll do in Forum Finds is this: when something really useful or interesting turns up, I'll place a pointer on this site. So keep an eye on drupalace.com; you may catch some forum love that you'd miss otherwise.
Test, just a test
Hello. And Bye.
You have passed the test.

Treatments that are effective herbal / natural
Today when peeing I began the discovery of what I now know to be my first herpes outbreak. I don't want to be a drama queen, but I thought I was going to faint. What is the state of technology nowadays for a cure, or at least fast healing? Prevention? Is acyclovir or famcyclovir the only way to go?
There's no module for that
Uh, Drupal pretty much offers a module for everything... but not for that.
(Note of marginal relevance to site-building: Strange to see obvious spam that doesn't even attempt to include a link. Or did the link simply get stripped out somehow? I wouldn't think so, as my typical incoming spam does manage to include a link or two...)
First time here.
Hello to all.
The forum is nice effort. Looking forward to contribute to it.
Bye.
