I'm excited to tell you that the new SketchUp Help Forum is here!
http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/sketchup
Here are some features that we're particularly excited about:
- You can find answers before you even ask your question! The forum
will automatically suggest a similar thread as you begin typing your
question in a new post.
- The SketchUp Sages and Google employees will be able to mark any
reply as "Best Answer" and show this reply right below the original
question. If you post a question, you can mark any reply to your
question as "Best Answer" as well.
- Create richer posts by referencing all kinds of online sources,
including images and videos.
- Get to know others in the forum better by creating a useful profile,
which includes an avatar.
- As you build your reputation as an expert, you increase your "level"
in the forum. After a while, who knows - you can be the next SketchUp
Sage!
We're going keep this Group open for a little while longer so folks
have time to get use to the change. We highly recommend asking your
questions in the new forum so they will stay active and engaged after
we turn off the ability to post in this Group. On October 7th, 2009
we'll be turning off the ability to post in these groups and moving
them (along with the other Groups we've archived in the past) to a new
SketchUp Archive where you can search for any old posts.
Lastly, I'd love to hear what you think about the new forum and this
transition. Feel free to post responses in this thread, and I look
forward hearing your feedback.
