Guest guest Posted January 30, 2001 Report Share Posted January 30, 2001 ====================================== Yahoo! Groups Moderator News January 2001 ======================================= This is a copy of the Moderator news we just received: Use the info as you like ! )) Chip Dear Yahoo! Groups Moderator, We'd like to officially welcome you to Yahoo! Groups, the new service that incorporates eGroups technology. If you haven't done so, please check out the new website: http://groups.yahoo.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------- GETTING STARTED - SIGNING IN: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- All you have to do to access your groups on the web site is to link your current eGroups account(s) to a Yahoo! ID using our wizard. (If you don't use the web site, you won't need to link your accounts.) The process is simple: 1. Go to the wizard: http://groups.yahoo.com/convwiz 2. Tell us the eGroups account you'd like to link to a Yahoo! ID. (Your account is the email address you've used to sign in to the eGroups service.) 3. Tell us the Yahoo! ID you'd like to link your account to. If you don't have a Yahoo! ID, you can register for one at that time. 4. If you have multiple eGroups accounts, you need to go through the wizard more than once. You can link up to 5 accounts per Yahoo! ID. IMPORTANT NOTES: * Please remember that your groups have not moved. They are still here! All you are doing is establishing a Yahoo! ID log-in to access them via the web site. * Old URLs and email addresses will continue to work. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- WHAT'S NEW / WHAT'S STILL THE SAME ---------------------------------------------------------------------- All the features you know and love about eGroups are now part of Yahoo! Groups. In addition, we've added some new functionality that we hope you'll enjoy. WHAT'S NEW: Yahoo! Groups has lots of new features and even better customization. You can: * Chat with other group members using our improved Yahoo! Chat. * Add a splash of color to your group, or a group home page photo, all without knowing HTML. * See when group members are online and communicate with them in real time using Yahoo! Messenger. * Reach a larger audience. You will have the entire Yahoo! network of communications and communities services at your doorstep. And much, much more to come! WHAT'S STILL THE SAME: * All eGroups email and web addresses will continue to work. You can still send email to <groupname>@, <groupname>@onelist.com as well as <groupname> (Your members will receive all mail from <groupname> ) * All of your group information including messages, calendar events, and your entire membership have been maintained. * Yahoo! Groups remains a free service Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
