    Hey admin, how about a Nikon links section? Something like what you have over on Leicarumors. Just a thought.

    The only issue I have is that there is already such site: http://www.nikonlinks.com/
    Is it worth doing another one? Can I (we) do a better job? Should I added to the forum or the blog? Let me think about it and let's hear some more opinions.

    The thing with nikonlinks.com, or "the google" for that matter, is that you have to cut through a lot of ads, 404 errors, and so-so links before you come across anything interesting. That takes up a lot of time. Nikonlinks.com is 60 percent ad space and is frustrating to navigate at times.

    In between rumor downtime you've posted links to cool or interesting Nikon goodness. Just thinking you could group it into a separate page perhaps? Maybe expand the Nikon fun stuff and weird sections into one? Since I opened my big mouth I'll be the first to jump into the water and suggest some links.

    And my personal favorite find for the day, a Transformer D2Xs along side a Transformer EOS-1Ds! Also from Hans collection.

    Ok, for now I will start labeling the link here http://nikonrumors.com/category/nikon-newslinks until I decide what is the best way to put this online.

    Hey thanks for the recognition on the main page admin. I figured people here would enjoy the Sendai plant tour slideshow. Just trying to do my part to contribute to the site instead of whine and complain like some tend to do.
