Rivet AIRForums.com - Our new home on the internet!

I wanted to let you all know that we have moved to a new home on the internet. Our new domain name is

AIRForums.com

We made this move for various reasons and are very excited to have this behind us. We are committed to remaining an independant resource for Airstream Enthusiasts to share knowledge about all Airstream related products and services.

As many of you know, we are the largest Airstream site on the internet with an average of over 120,000 visitors per month (stats) since last summer! We have well over 100,000 pages of information including 29,000 discussions, 12,700 photos, 77 trailers & 17 motorhomes for sale in our classifieds (over 1,700 ads listed to date), hundreds of products in our review system and more.

We are just barely 5 years old (founded in February 2002) and are very excited about the next 5 years. We plan to add some amazing new features to allow our members to write blogs as they travel, upload photos and videos from their travels and edit them into a single video with music, to upload videos to create "how to" tutorials like best practices of polishing, how to shave rivets, etc. We are also working on a social network to connect 'Streamers across the country. That way you can keep in touch with everyone you meet right here at AIR!

I want to take this time to thank the members for making this such an amazing community. Without our awesome members this site would not exist so everyone deserves a big hand! I would also like to thank our Administrators and Moderators as they do an excellent job keeping the peace and keeping things organized and running smoothly! Also, I want to thank our former mods and admins that help make AIR what it is today.

We are a licensed Airstream partner and will continue to operate under our licensing agreement. That means that we have to ask you all not to produce anything that has our domain name, logo, etc at this time as our licensing agreement prohibits us from having goods like that without prior written approval from Airstream, Inc.

Thank YOU, Andy, and everyone else associated with the site! Since my husband and I have found you, we have learned SO incredibly much to benefit us with our Airstream ownership, and hopefully we have helped a couple people too. The site is such a wonderful resource, but also the people are incredible.

We are looking forward to meeting lots of AirForums folks soon!

Susan and Brad

Andy-

As one of your team members, I can not thank you enough for all the hard work and dedication you have given to everyone, and I mean everyone, here on the forum. Our contributors, members and visitors have no idea of the complexity of your hard work and to Vodo that you do!

Thank you Andy- Rick

Just academic curiosity..

Andy,
As I have opined previously, this site is an example of how things should be done. Having to supervise a site as part of my job responsibilities, I have an awareness of how much work something like this is.
As a matter of academic curiosity, can you divulge the reason why you changed domains? Being part of government, the domain names I use are assigned in perpituity. We do have some commercial domain names which we are not gooing to be used in the future but I'd be interested in the reason behind your change so that I can be aware of any pitfalls you have encountered.

Thanks

Sigh of relief here. I must have tried to log in this morning as the site was moving. I got what appeared to be an FTP page--heart attack!

Andy, it's a great virtual world of Streamers you've made happen. Thanks again.

Zep
