Possibly moving group - PLEASE READ   Message List

Re: Possibly moving group to LinkedIn

I beleive Google Groups will let you add a previous group as an EMAIL ADDRESS so when you post to the yahoo group it will broadcast over the google group as well... I don't know if it works in the other direction.  

Of course, if you set it up in both directions, you'll possibly create an endless loop that could lead to a black hole, and the destruction of the world as we know it.


Just a feature I noted when I created a new google group the other day.  Not the black hole, the email forward thingy.

Hi Jeremy, Yes, they do and it frankly, just seems like a more valuable networking tool than Yahoo. It's just too easy to get lost in the noise here on Yahoo...

It should be a long transition - for quite some time (or permanently?) the two groups should run in parallel. Yahoo is a proven platform, handles thousands of...

I need to agree that moving the group to a LinkedIn format may not work as well. The strength of the dialogue is just that, a dialogue, a thread of discussion...
