Final Thoughts (majority opinion of the AdminFusion staff):

Not long ago we were congratulating this forum called "Mummybrain" for winning Forum of the Month for April 2006. Well, here we are 14 months later doing it again! We have had a member win more than 1 FoTM reward here, but this is the first forum we've had win FoTM twice!

So...where to start? Well, you can head on over to our spotlight from last April, because much of what we said there still applies today. As we said last time, the name is great. There are quite a few parenting forums out there, but we like how Rizzo has branded hers with such a unique name.

While many things at Mummybrain have remained constant over the past year, there are also some great changes worth mentioning. The most apparent is the design of the forums. Comparing the screenshot from last April to the one above, you'll notice that the skin has been overhauled. This new skin is very smooth and comfortable. It has pictures in the header that accent the forums quite well and also highlight what is most important to all moms and dads - their children.

This (children) is another area where Mummybrain has progressed since last year. Rizzo has set up a section at Mummybrain just for kids - Kiddybrain! We thought that this was just brilliant. In today's crazy age of the internet, many parents are concerned about what their children are doing on the internet, what they are looking at, and who they are talking to. Well, now, parents at Mummybrain can invite their kids to come spend time at "Kiddybrain". Kiddybrain has family-friendly sections set up where children can do things such as receive help on their homework or play arcade games when they get bored (quite the opposites, eh? but that's okay!). Along with Kiddybrain comes its very own skin which is just as good, if not better, than the Mummybrain skin! The Mummybrain/Kiddybrain members now have 3 skins to choose from, and it's always good to be able to offer that kind of selection.

So, Mummybrain continues to go strong. In fact, activity has been phenomenal. A year ago, Mummybrain was at 20,000 posts but now it's over 130,000 posts! Great job to Rizzo and all of the great members at Mummybrain. There are only ~600 members there with well over 100,000 posts total - impressive
