HOW TO ARTICLES: Since ol' '96, POOLCENTER.com has been committed to building our knowledge base of Best Pool Practices. Some of our Pool Info articles are our most viewed web pages, with thousands of page views per day. Organized by Category and fully searchable, Dive into our How To Pool Articles. We tell you how to do it, so you can do it yourself! All Pool Info pages are wiki-able in Pool Wiki! Click here to browse the original pool information pages.
POOL VIDEOS: We sort of borrowed the Logo from YouTube (we hope Google won't mind) - Funny Pool Videos, How-To Pool Videos, Product Demonstrations and Information Videos. With broadband on the rise, video has become an effective means of teaching, training or just entertaining. Browse and view our pool videos, openly discuss, or register and submit your own!
POOL GLOSSARY: Built on top of our popular Lingo & Lexicon page,our Pool Wiki is your interactive swimming pool wictionary and wiki-fied article database. A Wiki is simply an editable database that allows users to update content (like Wikipedia). Don't like our defination of pH? Change it! Start a Revolution! In the open-source spirit that built the internet, we invite you to participate, collaborate and educate each other! Login, then Dive In!
WEB LOGS: A Blog is kind of like a One Way Forum. Users can view Posts, and reply to Posts, they just can't start their own Post (see Pool Talk) . View our President's Blog (woo-hoo!), our Pool Product Blog, our Pool Tech Blog, and your own Community Pool Lifeguard's Blog. User feedback is encouraged! Coming soon! Tell us how you feel! C'mon, don't be shy! Really shout it out! Link to us and we'll link to you. Click here to view Pool Blog!
POOL GROUPS: OK, we know that we're not Facebook, or Myspace or even Friendster. We also know that you have better things to do than hang out on POOLCENTER.com, building a buddy list. But we have the technology, to create User Groups. Maybe an Automatic Pool Cover Group? Anthony Pool Owners? Texas Techs? Not sure...let us know! We'll get you started!
PRODUCT REVIEWS: So you just bought a pool cleaner and you love it; well now there is place to tell the world how satisfied you are with your purchase. Or perhaps you purchased a pool alarm and it wasn't quite what you expected? Share your pros and cons regarding all pool products. Search through our new "Pool Reviews" database and create your own review on anything "pool."
