I would have said it depends were you are - 'Diver' and 'Dive' and numerous
other websites have space to advertise places, but getting a relationship
with other dive clubs would be a good idea, even local dive shops may be
able to help you out. What area are you - if NW or a reachable location I
may be able to help - or why not post places here?

Stick with NDG, creating more spaces listings isnt a good thing.... its just
more places we have to look.

Anyway, NDG is a better format, since you get the spaces pro-actively.

I disagree. A mailing list is always going to have a much smaller audience
than something that is web based, particularly since the drogon mailing
lists are so quiet these days.

<grin> opinions are like arseholes, everyone has one.

Im just a mere simple user of resources and my advice to the chap would be
to use NDG. He's far more likely to get access to divers who will fill his
places.....

Personally, I wouldnt go trawling websites for spaces, I rely on either NDG
or some private mailling lists Im part of.

Anyway, Im just one diver........enough of this, time for a few quaffable
things ;)

There's far too much Internet dilution these days, alas. As more and more
stupid people use the 'net, mailing lists are probably going to be less and
less used, and the web-based forums will become more and more used. Pity
as I don't have enough hours in the day to look at everything, so only
look at a very small group, and rely of pushing mailing lists to
get a lot of data to me, which I can then filter in a far more efficient
manner.
