I'm thinking of changing the official SRHSP group from Google to
Yahoo, although maybe Yahoo is not much better? Perhaps I will simply
have Facebook Twitter and YouTube, keep things simple?

Let me know what you think although given that there are only around
12 members I don't really expect a reply.

I also seem to be unable to edit the appearance for this group.

Google Groups seems to be full of bugs

When it comes down to it, a group is as only as good as the members who are
on it. As much as you might disagree with this, civil rights causes like
the one you are fighting for needs Chiefs and Indians alike. There need to
be people who are in good positions of leadership to be able to organise
events and have the vision of making them successful, and followers who are
prepared to give their time to promote them.

Google Groups disabled this function on January 13th and they gave the
group's admins and members alike due warning about a month beforehand. I
don't mind if you want to switch back to Yahoo!, as I have now joined the
Yahoo! Group for Skin Freedom. Let's help make this new one a success, and
do it right. :-)


Best wishes,
