The Juggling Edge - I was talking to someone at BJC who recommended that I check out this site.

I was talking to someone at BJC who recommended that I check out this site. I think his name was either Orin, Simon or Paul.

You may have seen me pottering around BJC in a crew hoodie and a blue sock hat, doing anything but juggling.

Hurrah! Welcome aboard - and thanks for wearing a yellow hoodie!

Yay new people. This does seem to be the most active juggling message board in the English language right now.

JugglingRock on Facebook is probably more active, although the majority of the posts are videos.

I think that's quite a common approach to internet communities these days. It's all "look at this thing I found" or "look what I made, love me love me LOVE ME!!! RATE COMMENT SUBSCRIBE!!!11eleventy"

Call me old fashioned, but I quite like text, banter, and you know... discussion!

old fashioned.

There. I did it.

While I agree with your sentiment, I find Jugglingrock does agood job (for the most part) or avoiding annoying like/subscription/share requests. I'm always surprised by how much user-generated content there is, too, rather than posts of others' videos.

Oh hi Chris. You're popping up everywhere on the internet this evening :)

Chris - 2013-04-17 21:47:44 UTC - Parent #

I pop up precisely when I mean to.

I guess this means that you figured out my Reddit account then.

You haven't popped up on ##juggling yet (as far as I can tell) - come on in, the water's lovely.

We've also got a new web client for people to play with, so if anyone reading tried https://jugglelounge.com before but decided they didn't like the web client, I'd love to hear how you get on with https://www.jugglelounge.com/webchat/alternative-web-client/ instead.

I never got to grips with IRC, but I will give it a crack.
