Is this the best Microcontroller forum??? any others?

Hi, ever since iv been here, iv had nothing short of extremely inteligent expert help, which has helped me greatly. I was just wondering if there is like a chat room in IRC or some other huge database of microcontroller information and stuff like that besides this site.
any one know?
thanks

The PICList is supposed to be the ultimate repository. Personally I have a bit of trouble dredging through it, but its format may just not suite my style.

I agree, it's so difficult to find the info you want at the PIClist I don't even go there anymore.

Microchip has forums too, they are fairly new, but have potential.
