I think so. It is a happy medium between facebook and linkedin.

I like RallyPoint because it provides informative discussions, and it provides the means to connect with fellow brothers and sisters that have gone through the same things that you have. It is a very important resource!

I think RallyPoint is an excellent resource, given the myriad of topic threads; something for everyone. For me, it gives me an opportunity to participate in both thought provoking issues and humor as well as post questions that are issues to me. I can have discussions here that aren't easily found in my current circle of friends. Sometimes I just need more than Facebook lite.

I like it. It's good to interact with servicemembers, without the absurdity of a Facebook debate and with fewer uninformed folks jumping into discussions of military affairs.

It's what you make it to be, and how open you are to other viewpoints. If you connect with good folks, you're going to get smarter and more informed being they will challenge you as you do them

I have returned to it after six months and I noticed that it improved markedly. It still needs a lot of housecleaning for there is always some garbage on every forum; however, the quality is going up. It is a great resource for learning perspectives and opinions of people we would otherwise never met or heard.

RP is a good distraction to me.
