I voted for tv, but it was on the bbc's website a few weeks back

June 14, 2008--I was watching 'old commercials' on YouTube just outta boredom, saw an old 1960s ad for Salem so I started doing a search for cigarette commercials, and one of the links was a CURRENT commercial for an NJOY.

Never heard of e-cigs before that, but I was intrigued. Did a search on them, found this terrific site--and was surprised at all the people saying "I don't smoke real cigs anymore".

I thought "yeah right" but I was desperate to quit smoking, so I sent for one thinking it would just be some novelty item--a week later I was off cigs!

I first saw an article about them on BBC breakfast news, looked it up on the web, found this forum, did some reading on here and got my first e-cig last week, ( black mini 901 ) and so far well on my way to becoming a habitual vaper.

Same exact situation as BadSeed. Was reading BBC news online and saw an article about smoking with pics or video of people vaping at a pub.

Being a smoker for 20 years and an ex candy-raver, I was attracted to the blue LED (shiny shiny bright bright light light), did some googling, found a supplier, and ordered one right away. Found this forum later through a link on the supplier's webpage. Just wish I had done a little more research before making that first purchase.

I first noticed the e-cigarette for sale on the internet last year. However I thought is was an improvement of another device that I had seen being tested out on TV pre 2000 that had finally made it on to the market. Finally today after a lot of googleing I found the thing I was confusing it with technically it's still an e-cigarette although its workings are different.
The device is called the RJR Accord. I remember one guy describing it as smoking chalk dust. Still not found any info if this product ever made the market though.

A non-smoking friend told me about a coworker who beat the campus-wide tobacco ban where he works with e-cigarettes. My workplace will probably start a similar ban in January. Given that there is over a mile to walk to get out of the campus (and end up on a highway....), I figured I could not be caught unprepared with a 22-cigarette a day habit, I dived into e-smoking....
Since I could not call that a personal recommendation (he did not have any idea about whether it was a worthy replacement, other than that his colleague could get through the day), I opted for the non-listed option....

Im also a member of a headphone forum and a guy was talking about a gamucci electronic cigarette so I half arsedly searched about then forgot about it, then I had been thinking about stopping smoking and the electronic cig thing came to mind, did some more searching through suppliers websites and chose pillbox's site as it was close to me (so if anything went wrong I could knock on some doors hehehe , since learned there is no issue with these electronic cigs and they all arent cowboys out there) supermini, mini and classic later im trying to find the perfect liquid recipe for me, ive found glycogen really knocks the throat hit for 6 (reduces it and smoothes it out) but I digress.

But yeah, I found this website by searching for electronic cigarette forums on google.

I chose 'Online Other' since I read about it on some geek blog site! Forget which one..probably Geekologie or Engadget.

I caught the end of a BBC news piece, had been thinking about trying to quit the cigs again at the time.
A quick google led me to intellicig and then here. 2 weeks later I own a mini and cigar from smokster and a super mini from intellicig.
