I've checked out several, but at the end of the day I always come back to the conclusion that most everything else I've found is slumming. There, it's been said: put that into your little "waft of wealth" shoebox and feel happy. Happy, but mistaken. Retired, yes; rich as you'd love to hate, no; ex-professional, yes.
Note that I do not claim to be the world's top surfer, neither on water nor in cyberspace. The other sites that I do visit these days do not indulge in chat; they supply information, or are simply other photographers' sites. In how many places do you need to hold a computer conversation, and how many people do you feel obliged to 'know' or with whom to do it?
