Groups Are Now Live

We're pleased to announce the launch of our Groups feature.  We have public forums, but even with those, it has been hard for people to organize around certain topics and locations to, for instance, arrange meetups or other events, or talk about something in more detail.

Any registered user can create a group. When you are a member of a group, you can post a group Discussion or a group Poll.  Discussions can also have images attached, so mini-galleries are possible.  Group managers can send broadcasts to all group members or make other members managers.

You can belong to as many groups as you want.  You're account page now lists all of your groups for easy access, plus you can view group activity for an eay summary of what is going on with the site.

Try it out.  Look around. Invite others. Let us know what you think.
