Jacksonville Chat Forums

• Urban Planet Jacksonville Online Forum
• This online discussion forum has been around for many years and it is a great place to hear what local residents are saying about the latest businesses, restaurants, and news stories. Sign-up is quick and secure, so you can start posting in just a few minutes as long as you have a valid email address.
  

• Topix/WTLV First Coast Community News Forum
• Registration is taking a little longer, I actually have to wait for my email. My first impression is that this is a very active community, but the available options look somewhat more limited. There is an interesting post about the best wings in Jacksonville, but I can't post there right now and add my 2 cents.

• MetJAX Jacksonville Community Forum
• Registration was quick and easy here also. From what I've seen so far, this is probably the best of the three. It has the activity of Topix's local forum and it has some of the archiving and content publishing features of Urban planet. The main advantage here is that this website is Jacksonville specific, so its the main and only focus of the administrators and web admins.
  

• Metro Jacksonville Online Chat Forum
• Maybe this is the updated version of the above entry? They look very similar, but this one has even more recently updated topics. The organization is similar, but not quite the same.
