AE Lounge is a new Convore channel on After Effects if you want to chat realtime about AE, problems, solutions, etc... There's also e-mail summaries and an iPhone app.
According to Forrest Maready, Convore is an indexable, searchable group chat. So, rather than ask a question on a forum, hopefully you can get immediate feedback on something if your stuck. An AE group chat could be fun if there's enough people around who not already totally engulfed by Twitter or Facebook and older lists and forums.
