www.yahoogroups.com

Yahoo Groups was created with the acquisition of www.egroups.com in 2000. The idea was to provide a way for groups of people to communicate about a topic via email and a central repository of information that each time a person responded to the list would be added to the knowledge base of the community. This made it easy to collaborate and exchange ideas.

Today, Yahoo Groups is still doing well. It's a top 100 website and remains fairly unchanged in the last 8 years. You can still create public and private groups. Invite people to your group, or as an adminstrator of a group, you can controll access to the site. In order to get information out of a private group, you have to join and be accepted.

This is a review of www yahoogroups.com. I'll provide information about what I like and didn't like about the site. In the end, I'll give a recommendation if you should use the site and my overall rating. Feel free to leave a comment or suggestion if you have used Yahoo Groups. Thank you.

Yahoo! Groups is ok, but you're right about the spam and dead groups. Also, the product hasn't been significantly updated in a really long time.

There are a lot of alternatives to Yahoo! Groups that don't have these problems and that offer a lot more features for free. Big Tent (www.bigtent.com) is one of these services. They offer everything that Yahoo! Groups does, plus member profiles, the ability to collect member dues, multiple forums, sub-groups, classifieds, and ratings and reviews.

That's it - just my 2 cents
