I concur with Anker. Yahoo groups lacks for our type of usage.
Google is simple (like a Mac) and Yahoo is difficult, convoluted and
tedious (like Windows).
I am using the "abridged" option which is slick, quick and doesn't
keep asking for passwords. Groups has it's place but Google rocks. I
use mine along with Google reader which gathers stuff from other
places at the same time.
Our club also uses Yahoo Groups for intra-club info, but for an open
forum like RCSE was, Google's the winner. Try it. You'll like it.

I like Google Groups much better than Yahoo Groups. The web based
interface to Yahoo Groups is terrible and the email distribution of
the
two is comparable.

I like the Yahoo Groups scenario. MVSA uses it for our communication
and it works well. Like a mail list that you can wither read in web
view or have the mail pushed to your email client.
RCSE was great because it was not a forum type list. Forums have
their
place but mail works best for what RCSE type communication in my
opinion. In forums stuff gets scattered all over and you have to
browse through the different subjects to find something. BLECH!
Thanks to RCSE and Mike. Through it I found all you guys (for better
or worse) and it furthered my enjoyment of the hobby.
Thanks Mike and MAN
