Yahoo Site Heads Up
I got this message today telling me that my Yahoo Group
basically has been disabled and that all content, including
all the pdfs of all the stories will be deleted as of December 14.
So this is your last chance to get the pdfs, unless you e-mail
or contact me. That means the Yahoo Group will be defunct, since
I was only using it to store the stories.
Attention: Starting December 14, 2019 Yahoo Groups will no longer
host user created content on its sites. New content can no longer
be uploaded after October 28, 2019. Sending/Receiving email
functionality is not going away, you can continue to communicate
via any email client with your group members.
Dear Group Moderators and Members,
We are notifying you about upcoming changes to Yahoo Groups,
which affect how content is shared and group membership is
managed. We know that our users are deeply passionate about
connecting around shared interests, and we want to continue
offering the best experience possible.
We extensively researched the Yahoo Groups usage and user
experience. In doing so, we determined that the majority of
our members use the Yahoo Groups email functionality to share
content, rather than posting directly to website message boards.
To align our features with user preferences, effective October 28,
the following changes will be made to Yahoo Groups:
Uploading of new content will be disabled on the Yahoo Groups
website. All users can continue to communicate and share content
via email using any email client.
All users will only be able to join Groups either through an
invite from the Group Moderator or by submitting a request
to join a Group, which requires approval by the Group Moderator.
Starting December 14, all previously uploaded content stored
on the website will be removed and all existing public Groups
will be made private. If you would like to keep any of the
content you’ve posted or stored within your Yahoo Group, you
have until December 14 to download it by accessing this link.
More information about the upcoming changes can be found here.
Since most content sharing among Yahoo Group members now occurs
over email, we believe it is the right time to make this change.
Please be assured that while posted content will be removed,
Yahoo Groups is not going away, and new Groups can still be
formed, allowing users to join and connect with their communities
and passions.
Yahoo Groups is an online extension of your real-life group
of friends, interests, and communities, so we hope this change
will streamline and improve your experience.
Sincerely,
The Groups Team
