Yahoo! Groups

Whether it’s to gush about a favorite band, geek out about electronics, share travel tips, or chat about each other’s cats, Yahoo! Groups is where people with a shared interest meet and communicate. But Yahoo! Groups isn’t just a great space in which to connect with like-minded people, friends, and family; it’s also a trusted, secure place to run organizations—an easy-to-use platform for community exchange.

Art of Assembly

Members of Yahoo! Groups can link up and share information using message archives, photos and photo albums, group event calendars, member polls, links, and more. Discover what members are up to and how they’re connecting by checking out a Group Zone—a collection of featured groups and subcategories relevant to a particular topic—such as the Hobbies & Activities Zone. Or see what’s hot at Best of Yahoo! Groups. Or browse by categories such as music or animals.
