how about 'message'?

i just renamed all of the instances and so on to 'Message Board' anyway, for i think it's a trifle
more modern than the throwback to our dial-up gathering places of yore. =)

so you would post a message, then people would comment on the message.

(however we're making a plugin for bender to allow webmessaging (NOT web-based IM's) so it may
conflict.)

*shrug*
