Lets talk about websites

[DanM]

OK guys. I would like to bring up a discussion thread that will compare various websites that a searcher might find useful. I think this will be a nice break from the political discussions and name calling. It might even be useful to someone who wants to meet a nice girl from Eastern Europe.

My one request is that no agency owner or website owner plug their own site. Jack, I am going to pick on you because you are the one I know best. I would ask that you feel free to talk about any site except your own and anyone else would be free to talk about your site.

Now the purpose of the thread is to share information and opinions about the various sites. All are welcome to participate with the one condition listed above. Just put the name of the website you want to discuss in your subject box and then share with the board. In addition to just giving your comments, also try to provide useful information such as the web address and any other information that might be relevant to a searcher.

For example, when describing a website you could tell us if it is a general dating site or one targeted to a specific group such as Russian Women. You could tell us if it provides join dates for the girls. You could comment on the search options, prices for contact information, etc. You could even give your color commentary on the site. Just whatever you think could be useful.

I hope some of you will share what you have found in your own searches with the rest of the board.

Thanks.

Dan, this is a site I stumbled on to and it has some great concepts because if there is any name that fits what we are all trying to do it it "SPEED DATING". I hope everyone will look this over !!

I think it's the Volgagirl website that has an email list you can subscribe to similar to this website chatroom.  50 emails a day does get annoying but you can also read the messages through the website referenced in the email.

Here is a great site for airflight searches.  It doesn't buy you a ticket, but is the most comprehensive source of flights I have ever seen.  Click on the 'Timetable' option, and it will show all of the flights between your two destinations for a week on either side of your dates.  That is a real godsend.  All other sites simply tell you 'no flight available' because they only check on the specific dates you punch in.  This website cuts down greatly on the trial and error approach to trying to find out what days of the week any airline at all flies between the two target cities.

But for any newbies out there thinking of going to Ukraine, then www.brama.com is a must see.

Not only the travel board, the other boards are well worth checking, and if you can't find what you want in the archives, there's always someone willing to answer requests.
