I found CC when the other site was turning sour, and CC was started. My favorite thing about the site is the wealth of info you can find here.

34803. alliannie said in July 16th, 2008

I found CC from WC. My favorite part is the mommy groups. It is great to connect with moms with children the same age range!

34806. eponymous said in July 16th, 2008

Found this from Katy’s LJ back in the day when the thing happened with the place.

34813. ericka_jarett said in July 16th, 2008

34814. PinkMartini said in July 16th, 2008

Like many others, I came to CC during the mass exodus.

Despite some drama (which makes for interesting reading), my favourite part of being part of CC is being able to share like experiences with other women. I love being able to give and receive support regarding difficult things that I have experienced in my life. It is therapeutic.

I love CC for the incredible wealth of information on so many topics, but especially in parenting.

34851. Chylynn said in July 17th, 2008

I found CC when Katie was nice enough to form it for us WC ladies that were left hanging when WC made the changes.

My favorite thing about CC is that I love that I have been friends with so many woman for 8+ years and the wealth of information I am able to receive from so many diffrent members.

34867. yby1 said in July 17th, 2008

I found CC thru WC/LJ.

My favorite thing to do is talk about movies. My mommy group rocks too.

Another WC migrator. I love my mommy group on CC, as well as all the celebrity gossip!

I found CC through friends on WC. I really love the mommy groups; there is so much information. I also like the gossip threads - they keep me up to date on things.

34879. Dastlr said in July 17th, 2008

I found CC while I was planning my wedding. I was able to get lots of ideas on flowers, dresses, and was also able to find some of my vendors thru others that recommended them. Then I switched to the family planning and still use the family planning thread! Love it!

34883. kiley said in July 17th, 2008

I love all the drama and the mommy groups. Found CC through WC.

Another groupie from WC….my favorite is the parenting forums. Very helpful.

34907. cela-bela said in July 17th, 2008

I also migrated over from WC. My favorite part of CC definitely has to be the LOST thread!

34908. darin's girl said in July 17th, 2008

I followed the masses from WC. My favorite part is keeping up with gossip and tv talk.

34909. kmmommy als said in July 17th, 2008

I came from WC as well. I like the
Parenting threads but also enjoy the Cooking and Entertaining threads.

34927. Soulmate said in July 17th, 2008

I found CC on WC on LJ when WC self-destructed. My favorite part of CC is the women who are very intelligent and humble enough to post their questions and struggles which inevitably help all of us.

34942. elladee said in July 18th, 2008

I’ve been here from the beginning, back when WC self-destructed. I have found a wealth of knowledge on many different subjects here, but I think the thing that keeps me coming back are the gossip threads.

34947. jenzen01 said in July 18th, 2008

I came over with the migration from WC. I love the pregnancy/family boards.

34956. Bellefior said in July 18th, 2008

I am another one one who came over with the mass exodus from WC. My favorite thing about the site is that generally, if I am looking for information about anything, no matter what the subject, I can usually find the answer here.

34969. mrsbeckylp said in July 18th, 2008

I also came to CC via WC. My favorite part of CC are the parenting forums. I have learned so much about car seat safety, BFing, pumping, etc. CC can be such a great resource.

34972. blondegirl said in July 18th, 2008

I found CC through WC. I practically live at CC during the day - need to keep busy somehow!! My favorites are the parenting boards and gossip/tv threads.

34975. looty said in July 18th, 2008

I found CC like many did when the mass exodus from WC happened. I think my favorite things about CC are the friends I have made and the support I have received when suffering though infertility.

34978. chandy said in July 18th, 2008

I came from WC. I like the wide variety of topics and the active members.

34981. Amuse Bouche said in July 18th, 2008

WC migration, and gossip.

34982. jellybeany said in July 18th, 2008

I came over with the mirgration from WC when one of my journal buddies told me about this place. I love all of the information and different points of view everyone has on here!

34983. makena32204 said in July 18th, 2008

34984. Kopper said in July 18th, 2008

I joined CC on the first day. I found out about it from WC. My favorite part about CC is that I can usually find an answer to just about any question I have and even questions I didn’t have.

34985. Ilovemygeek said in July 18th, 2008

I came over from WC and my favorite part of CC is the pregnancy and parenting section.

34990. Graffy said in July 18th, 2008

I don’t even remember how I found CC since I never was a member of WC. But I’ve been around since nearly the beginning and the family boards have been a lifesaver in many ways. And the occasional lurk in the gossip threads has helped lighten up many days.

34991. katie&micah said in July 18th, 2008

I also came over from WC. My favorite thing about this site is the new posts button. It lets me see threads from forums I normally wouldn’t visit.

34997. KristyK said in July 18th, 2008

Been here since the beginning with the “Great WC Migration”!

I stay here, although I’ve dabbled on other sites, because I like the thought that a bunch of women from different lifestyles, different careers, different backgrounds can come together and share….everything!

34998. losthoosier said in July 18th, 2008

I too came over from WC.. I too have been around from the beginning and love it.. My favorite part of CC is the March Mommies 2006 section

35000. GlamaGal said in July 18th, 2008

I joined CC after the parenting forum I belonged to at WC disappeared.

My favorite thing about this site is the genuine concern I’ve felt from the members when I’ve needed it most.

35002. onfire said in July 18th, 2008

Like so many others, I found CC when WC imploded. Like someone said in a previous comment, I really like that, collectively, we know just about everything. Or at least we have opinions about everything!

35004. smellycatsgirl said in July 18th, 2008

I came over with everyone over on LJ during the migration. I like the CC because of the range of topics and because of the pregnancy family planning boards. It’s nice to be able to talk to other women who are due around the same time as I am.

35065. jeepgirl said in July 19th, 2008

I found out about CC when I was planning a wedding on WC. What I most appreciate about CC is how much information I’ve been able to glean over the last several years from women of all different backgrounds and viewpoints.

35067. Mrs.Pfeiffer said in July 19th, 2008

I found CC when I did a search about wedding planning. We were married last year and now I am back on CC since we found out we are now expecting!

ETA: i forgot to mention my favorite thing is that there are so many ideas from everyone and it is great I can be here for so many milestones in my life.

35073. L&D Nurse said in July 19th, 2008

1. I first heard about constant chatter while I was planning my 2003 wedding via weddingchannel.com. It seemed kind of silly to stay on a site named wedding channel after all the wedding hooplah was over, so I moved over to constant chatter.

2. I like that constant chatter attracts a wide array of women who talk about a myriad of interesting topics. It is always the first place I go if I’m looking for information or advice on any number of things, including real estate, the environment, parenting, cooking, relationships, news, pop culture, family life, careers, event planning, exercise, etc.

35077. manda_kate said in July 19th, 2008

I found CC when the other website we all visited was changing for the worst. I love this website because you can find information on anything and everything you could ever want. Everyone is extremely helpful, and you can always find someone to talk to who has been through the same things. I have learned so much from CC. Those are my favorite things about CC.

35083. shopaholic said in July 19th, 2008

I came over with everyone else from WC back in July 2005. I enjoy the gossip, tv/movie and fashion forums.

35084. motownmamma said in July 19th, 2008

I also came over from WC. My favorite part of CC is the mom groups. I keep in touch with lots of moms that I met here!

35112. MtySheera said in July 19th, 2008

I came over when all of the WC stuff went down. I love the baby groups. Everyone is so nice and helpful!

35113. Abigail M. Schilling said in July 19th, 2008

Just found out about this site from Twitter. I love smart, sassy women. Also, I love Burt’s Bees!

35195. junkinmytrunk said in July 20th, 2008

Also found CC via the exodus of July 05. My fave part of Constant Chatter — my cool and still pretty darned active Mommy group, the new posts and emotional support. I received invaluable help at an extremely low point in my life from the ladies here and will be forever grateful.

35206. mama2a&g said in July 20th, 2008

I also came here from WC and my favorite part of the site is the “all things home” section. I also like the crockpot meal thread.

35259. Sweet_Thang said in July 21st, 2008

I found CC via the WC and I really like the Chit chat, Support and the All home things. So much good advice and insight by alot of people!

35264. Ami (Writing: My Life) said in July 21st, 2008

I just learned about CC on Twitter. It looks like an awesome site with lots of great information. Looking forward to exploring some more!

35267. shebestova said in July 21st, 2008

I found CC via the WC, too. My favorite thing is the ChitChat - there is always something interesting to discuss.

35270. TheSmartMama said in July 21st, 2008

I found CC after BlogHer’08. Whoo-hoo! So far, I like the wide range of women and opinions.

35278. DnJ2002 said in July 21st, 2008

Found CC through WC…and its been such a great support site as I was starting a family (and now on to my 3rd!).

35340. shannongh said in July 22nd, 2008

I found cc during the mass exodus on WC. Love the support and information gained in the parenting/pregnancy threads.

35349. aprilshowers said in July 22nd, 2008

I came over when CC began after the site-that-shall-remain-nameless went bad. I love the community we have here!

35430. ktnkids said in July 23rd, 2008

I’m another who came over during the craziness. I’m not on here as much as I was on there as I just don’t have time (a couple of kids will do that to you) but I’ve always loved the support and suggestions I’ve gotten on here.

35460. Mar5195 said in July 23rd, 2008

I came over with the mass exodus. After my wedding it was time to change the channel and I’ve been here ever since.

35465. cath said in July 23rd, 2008

I came to cc from the other site. I love the mommy groups.

35504. Clattercote said in July 23rd, 2008

I followed the Charting While Trying to Avoid group here from the other site -I have enjoyed a tea swap and learned a lot of other things about books, politics and cooking, in addition to charting. Thanks for this group!

35594. ShamrockBride said in July 24th, 2008

I found CC while I was planning my wedding and the other site went a bit wacky and some lovely ladies dreamed this up.
My favorite thing about cc is the support of the women here, and the hilarious comments I wish I had thought up about reality TV… it helps to know I’m not the only one addicted.

35682. CrimsonEyes said in July 25th, 2008

I found CC through a friend who migrated here from WC. I think my favorite part of CC is how the members embrace you and treat you as though you have been there from the beginning.

35684. ptcrn said in July 25th, 2008

I found CC through the WC like many others. My favorite thing about this site is the parenting groups, and the fact that I can find information about pretty much anything here. I also really like the home improvement section.

35691. ktsb said in July 25th, 2008

Stumbled on CC when WC was blowing up although I just started lurking there planning for an upcoming wedding. I have made, met and added life long friends because of CC. And the tips and tricks I’ve learned are too many to mention.

36046. hula1974 said in July 28th, 2008

I came directly to CC by reco of the folks leaving WC. I love the baby forums and the home threads. I’ve learned so much.

36120. mom23guys1girl said in July 29th, 2008

This is my first experience coming over to Constant Chatter. I was directed here by an article Katy wrote for the Ladies Who Launch newsletter about Twitter. I enjoyed the article and thought I would hop on over here to see what Constant Chatter was all about. So far, I am impressed. Thanks and best of luck for the next 30 years.

36123. thechick79 said in July 29th, 2008

I came to CC by recommendation of a friend from WC. I didn’t join until a few months later.
I love the gossip threads because it’s so much information in one nice little area. I also enjoy reading the parenting threads.

36134. Cassandra Rae said in July 29th, 2008

This is my first visit - I found you through Ladies Who Launch. I can’t wait to check out the forums!

36160. just_kelly said in July 29th, 2008

36173. sublime311 said in July 29th, 2008

36220. Sparkle&shine said in July 30th, 2008

I came over in the first days from WC. I have to say that my favorite areas are the mommy box but I have always explored the whole site. The parenting areas just happen to apply to my life at this time. I still think this site has a lot to offer!

36250. browneyedgirl said in July 30th, 2008

36251. rubyslippers said in July 30th, 2008

I’ve been here since the begining. I got great wedding planning info and now I love the baby/parenting forums as we look forward to having our first baby.

36253. genndan100502 said in July 30th, 2008

I came over to CC from WC, I started on WC to read and drool over all the wedding planning threads then WC took a turn for the worst and we all migrated over to CC. Of course we all fell in love with CC (our new gathering place). I haven’t had much time to peruse through the boards these days but I still check up every once in awhile to read all the beauty must have and to get inspired by the home talk or even to read all the good deals $$ for babies and kids. It’s just a great wealth of information.

36254. pghchic said in July 30th, 2008

I first cameover from WC, when th site was having al the drama and did a bunch of changes. The thing I love about CC is the support. You can post any problems that you are having with any thing whether it’s money,husband,family or even job related. There is always someone who either has been through a similar situation or just to offer some kind words.

36255. ginad724 said in July 30th, 2008

I was part of the WC migration too. The thing I love best is that it really is a wealth of information, tips and support in all kinds of areas.

36275. imagirliegirl said in July 30th, 2008

Came over after the great WC collapse. I love being able to talk to people with different backgrounds and opinions. I enjoy the pets forum - I don’t feel so crazy about being a cat mom.

36278. Reenie said in July 30th, 2008

I came over from WC. I love so many different forums… I used the FIRM Believers thread as a support group to help me move from a 16 to a 4! I still love that. I love the family area, the gossip area, chit-chat, recipes… all of it!

36279. LRL said in July 30th, 2008

I found out about CC through WC- when they shut down the site and revamped it. My favorite thing about CC is the wealth of knowledge which is provided by our members.
