Topic: Google Group

I personally find this Yahoo group very hard to follow. When someone
replies to a message it is not posted with the message in a "thread".

I suggest we switch to using Google groups because their groups work
in a threaded mode.

What do you guys think?

I just discovered that you can list the topics by individual threads.
When you go to the Messages section, at the top of the list click on
(Group by Topic), and that should help following the various topics.

I'm very easy if there's a consensus to move somewhere else.

Does Google Groups allow you to post permanent links, files
and photos though? Separate to threads I mean. In the Google
groups I've seen material gets posted within threads which
would make it more complicated to find.

cheers, Dean

Threads make it easier to find posts by topic, but Yahoo groups do
allow one to sort messages by topic, so I don't think it's too hard to
deal with. Besides, we've already settled! There is a Search function,
after all. If it comes to the point where we need a full-out forum, we
can always just create an InvisionFree one or something. Just my opinion.

Yes a message board like Invision would be another possibility.

I must say I'm amazed by the level of traffic so far. I really thought
that it was probable that only two or three people would be interested!

Perhaps the initial interest will die down a bit - but thank you to
everyone who is contributing whether its in a tangible way of sharing
files and shows, or whether its just to say hello to the group.

And for the newcomers - feel free to fill in all or part of the
questionaire as a way of introducing yourself!

1. My favourite Just a Minute panellist is.... because....

2. If I could pick four people for my best ever Just a Minute panel,
they would be... because...

3. The person/s I would like to hear more of on Just a Minute is....
because...

4. The first time I heard Just a Minute, I thought...

5. I think if Kenneth Williams and Paul Merton had ever been on the show
together....

6. The funniest moment ever on Just a Minute was...

7. The reason I love listening to Just a Minute is...

8. If you've been to a Just a Minute recording, tell us about it!

9. If you've ever played Just a Minute yourself, tell us about it!

10. If I could meet a Just a Minute star and ask them one question, I
would want to meet..... and the question would be....

11. The Just a Minute star I most look like/act like is...

12. If I had to speak for 60 seconds on a subject without hesitation,
repetition or deviation, it would be...

13. Three key facts I'd like everyone on the group to know about me
are...
