Personally I do get emails and conversations from gfy threads for business even today - so it's not a total loss. Those who are in the industry look at a variety of sources and boards - the business forums here on GFY lean towards "want ads" or "flyers" you get at home. You skim over the title - read - then without posting etc. you go privately and check it out.

If I want anything my course is do a search on the topic then business then main board forums after I've exhausted my skype/ICQ.
