People share their opinions, ideas, experiences and questions.
*Message Boards - Message boards are a good source of information as well. Follow the discussions and see what things people are interested in and need to know more about. I have written many articles from information I read on the boards.
*Email Discussion Groups - Get involved in discussions. Find what information people are looking for. Not only can you get ideas for your articles, but also you can learn a lot as well by making new contacts. Go to Yahoo or google and do some searching for the right type of group for your business.
