This is the Virtual Community Directory sorted geographically, from Atlanta, Georgia to the Czech Republic - and a plethora of places in between. Thriving virtual communities - Internet sites where people use text, pictures or sounds to intertwine their lives - are vital and connected, with clear and distinct personalities and voices. Argument, support, debate, commiseration, excitement, and life electrify conversation. Virtual communities are more than places to exchange information - they are second homes, with sustained interaction and synergy. If you know of other regionally affiliated online communities, places where community members interact with each other, please take a few moments to tell us about them. We are looking for your suggestions of vibrant, thriving online locales. You can also view the directory by subject, alphabetically and by format (newsgroup, mailing list, conferencing system, etc.). Dive in, check out the communities that we've visited, and tell us about other places with real interaction and participation.
