Hoping you can help me folks.

The other day we were trying to work out what to call the new sectiosn ie. the credit card page, or the insurance section. And we decided upon..... ZONES!

It seemed to fit.

If possible would you start referring to them (as and when you do as zones). It just seemed to me that it'll make it easier for people if we all use the same terminology :)

    Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.

    Is it in relation to the main site? each of the orange options on the left-hand menu takes you to the 'credit card' zone, 'shopping' zone ...

    Personally I think Zones sound a bit too American.

    I assumed Martin meant the Pure Money Zone, Home, Work and Travel Zone?

    but I like the idea of the bottom section being a Twilight Zone ;)

    the credit card page, or the insurance section.



    but he used board names not sections names to illustrate............ so it doesn't read that way to me................:confused:

    but it does link in with sras idea that it's the main site

    All this talk of twilight zones wants to make me take a stab in the dark & suggest that Mr M. is referring to the articles section of the main website.
