Looking for free message board hosting... any suggestions?

[FoolishTech]

I'm trying to find a good (free) message board host so I can start a dedicated support forum for my app, D7.

The main requirement I have is that (other than free) the board be HOSTED, (not by me!) that I can just link to (or better yet, embed somehow) into my existing site (which is hosted by Google Apps.)

So far, I've looked at proboards.com, setbb.com, and even considered Google Sites as options.

Wondering what others opinions on hosted boards are...

Proboards or Invisionfree are possibly be the best choices. Unless you can find a phpBB or vB forum hosted for free.

Only downside is that you have no control over anything. No way to upload mods or files that you want to share. Everything is going to be controlled by the free host and you have to follow what they say.

To follow up, I did find a few free phpBB boards I had considered, and settled with freeforums.org on recommendation. I wouldn't need it for files, and I'm such a newb I don't concern myself much with control, so it looks like it will do the job.

Thanks!

Get Satisfaction are great for startups. You can begin with the free system which is more than enough to start.
