Hi I am new to Yahoo, As far as Groups and Y!A...So...?

Question

I was curious and wondering is Yahoo Groups better than MSN groups i have a few Msn groups but they are really not doing anything as far as activity...And I have been told by a lot of friends that Yahoo Groups are excellent. Can anyone give me so feedback on this?....Also can I open my groups on Yahoo (probably will have to close them on Msn right)? I am not sure how Yahoo groups work but would love to see. Thanks in advance for you help.

Answer 1

I am the owner of nearly 7 groups and I like the Yahoo groups very much. They are nice and practical. Here are some info about Yahoo Groups:

A Yahoo! Group is any group — your family, friends you see every summer, business associates, your book group, etc. — that uses Yahoo! Groups to privately share info, images, ideas and more — on the web.

It’s free, secure and spam-protected.

Here's how you can create a new group in Yahoo!

Here's how you can create a new group:

1. Go to Yahoo!s homepage, from the left hand side list choose "groups"

2. When the pages comes, there is box which says "Easy as 1-2-3. Start your group today." Click on it.

3. Then you enter to your Yahoo mail address.

4. You have 3 steps to create your yahoo group, which are: Categorize, Describe and Select Profile.

And here is additional info from Yahoo!:

Hope these will be helpful to you.

I like yahoo groups better.  more people are on it.  msn is ok.  mostly for adult - i.e. business or boring stuff.  Yahoo answers is full of people.  Hope this helps.

Answer 3

I have a friend that owns groups on both Yahoo and MSN at the same time.  As for which I find better, I find Yahoo better and easier to use than the groups at MSN.

To create a group on Yahoo Groups is real easy.  At the homepage for Yahoo Groups they have a thing for creating a group where it says, "Creating a group is as easy as 1, 2, 3".

To get to the Yahoo Groups' homepage go to: http://groups.yahoo.com
