So, I'm glad to be an "early adopter" of the new Taxacom, though I've never enjoyed interfaces with "conversation threads" that are concatenated into a single entity. Sometimes just one comment in a thread is all I want to have archived for future reference. Do any of you folks know how to alter the configuration in Google Groups so individual messages each appear indpendently, or is that simply not possible in this interface?

Doug,

Good to see you here too, I only joined a few hours ago.

I cannot comment on how to separate threads into individual posts on the
group website, but I read posts as independent e-mails, sent by Google
Groups to my e-mail address and downloaded onto my PC e-mail client,
which can be saved separately.

Adam.

I see that, now that I'm subscribed and receiving "forwarded" versions
of messages. I wasn't familiar enough with exactly how GGs function, but
clearly I don't have to open the GG website at all unless I want to see
all of the conversations at the same time. Not really different from a
traditional mailing list.

Crisis averted. ;-)

Peace,
