   I checked out Barq since I'd only heard of it in passing. It's   
   refreshing to see a furry network distinguish itself from the rest by   
   purpose - "Use Telegram for general chatting and use barq for Q&A and   
   discussing a topic," for example. I also like its apparent focus on   
   finding local connections and organizing in-person activities.   
      
   It's true there's a desire for shared furry spaces that personal sites   
   alone don't provide. Web design is a medium not everyone has a drive to   
   use, but I'd still like to see some linked from FA pages and the like.   
   There's cool stuff out there.
