Google groups, emailing posts to networks

Hi Chris,
Im fine with Google groups.
I think we will focus on all of them ..... at least at the start, to cover them initially. ... then, we will see ..

questions for you
1. can i post to gg via email?
2. you need to have Google account, correct?
3. there is no way to subscribe only to discussion you posted to ... i mean, the whole activity email arrives ..and that i had a problem with ......

thanks
Petr
ps
but go ahead, concentrate on Google groups, get people to know it and see how they like it
also please join webtools project ff and nexo groups, and publish your progress ....
i know you are already on ff and google and nexo and fb, so you are ahead of everybody else ...

-- my point to you also is, how satisfied are you with having different name on each network? ... your comment on that? your experience, recommendation?
..... you know how to email your answer here to ff and nexo, do you? .... either you email from ff registered email to groupname@friendfeed.com, or, use secret email i set up for us, 911DavisWeb.ff@friendfeed.com

everybody, once you are where Chris is, and Chris, will you go those groups, and say hi, and better, leave some comments ...

everybody, get in habit of doing this for this project - visit - comment- participate ..... it may be difference between "fail" and "pass", when I grade the progress and when the final vote is due!

Jack,

I have a feeling you would find Google Groups to be useful.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Groups

It functions just like e-mail, but with several bonuses.  It is like a message board, where people can start topics and others can respond to that specific topic. The comments are listed sequentially.

Best of all, you can get these comments forwarded directly to your inbox, so you never have to actually visit the site. But, if you wanted to follow a discussion, you could visit the site and click on the topic.

It is very useful and beneficial. The SF Truth Action group uses it with great results.

It also saves the hassle of having to type everyone's e-mail address.

You all should visit our Google Group, just for a few seconds, to see what it looks like.

I feel as if we should focus on getting everyone onto the Google Group, just to give it a chance. Then we can try other sites/services once people are settled and comfortable. Is this okay with you, Petr?

Please direct questions about the Google Group to me, and I will do my best to answer them. I feel as if it would greatly assist and expediate us in our various discussions. I for one constantly wish we were all using a Google Group instead of e-mail.

Rock and/or roll,

Chris
