Doug, It would be interesting to know how many members were registered prior to the old Amigos board closing down.
This forum software was uploaded in 2002... Amigos shut down in August of 2003. At that time, there were just over 200 registered members here.

Before that, I'd had a message board using FrontPage software... which I recommended to Eric of Amigos.. and they were much better - and much more patient with it - than I. My old FrontPage site, although closed, is still online at:
http://bb.escapist.com/baja

With all the work it took to maintain that site/software, I had NO desire to manage all that - and let it die a quiet death.

With the advent of new forum software, and my hosting websites for others, I felt it important to learn the new software, and simply loaded it to the BajaNomad site to test and learn with... and it wasn't too bad, as the administration area made it not-too-bad to manage/moderate/etc.

I originally posted a website online circa 1994/5 via my AOL account I was using at the time. I had been answering questions online on USENET and AOL boards - but was inspired by Fred Metcalf's information online... as were both answering traveler's questions, only he answered the same questions once, where I was doing it over and over and over... and thought... HEY, a website is the way to go, no doubt. The original site:
http://users.aol.com/bajanomad/guide.htm

...which now points to where I moved the site:
http://www.escapist.com/baja

... and that site (information very outdated now), still gets about 5000 unique visitors a month (at last count).
