blogs are more one person making topics and people can't always comment and discuss on those.
but as for forums, bulletin boards and message boards! i can't see much of a difference.

Blogs are like journal entries - one person ranting about their boring existance as they think somebody cares.
I don't know if there's any true difference between message boards and forums, but I work off the general assumptions that forums are there for active discussion dedicated to a particular topic whilst message boards are about general discussion. Or that the word 'forum' or 'forums' encompasses a whole range of message boards. In short, don't worry too much about it.
Bulletin boards, I think, are more centered around informing people of something, without the need for a specific reply from the readers.

Bulletin boards where the ones used in telnet and BBS systems i guess. Message board could be a retarded looking board with just q&a's. a forum is a community with discussions etc. Just guessing

If you can't find a blog that you like, you're just not trying.
Forums dedicated to one game are sometimes good sources of gameplay tips and info. There are a lot of these forums that I'll occasionally visit to ask a question or ask for help.
Usually I don't post much at all. M&B forum is an exception; I was really interested in discussing and suggesting ideas once upon a time. However, how many times can I read posts on shield bashes, formations, and new weapons?zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
General Forumsdevoted to games of all types are what I like: forums like Octopus Overlords, Quarter to Three, etc. are more interesting to me: there's all sorts of people who post there and while their interests rarely coincide with mine, there's usually somebody talking about something interesting.
Message boards usually have the feel of having limited topics and of being a place where you just post a question without really wanting to read anybody else's discussion. Like a message board for Sony HDTV owners; you just ask your question, answer somebody else's (if you can), and leave with your info. Perhaps never to return.
Did this make any sense? Does anyone agree? No, well
