Re: SurfGuitar101 Yahoo Group to Cease Operations May 31 2006

Brian Neal (xarxas) - 30 Apr 2006 10:37:28

Well again...the main reason I am closing this Yahoo Group is that I
have my hands full running the other site, and it doesn't makes sense
to have conversations in two places. I'm not dissing the Yahoo Group
format. So for those of you who dig it, or need the email experience,
I encourage you to head over to Reverborama. And Bill, I hope to see
you on the new site when you get DSL or a cable modem. Sorry, there is
no easy way for me to mail out forum posts at this time. An RSS feed
may be in reach however, you could at least see what the latest forum
topics are via RSS and then click on the ones that interest you.

I dunno, clearly the new site has advantages here. Want to go to a
show, or just see what shows are coming up? Just check out our calendar:

Agreed. I know a few people who just cannot deal with the web
forum...it totally seems to confuse them. On the other hand, a lot of
people dig the fact that you can link in photos to posts, and they
prefer not to deal with stuffed mailboxes. They also seem to like
silly little things like having an avatar... :-)
