Yahoo Groups mess
Thursday, August 7, 2003 by Fuzzy Logic | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
As of this Friday Yahoo groups are going to disallow all attachments in the message archives. This means anyone who wishes to see attachments must receive e-mail. Being a photographer/artist I'm in a large number of picture groups (OK, I'll admit to the Buffy group too...), all of which I see on-line. I've now changed my options to e-mail rather than view on-line. Despite only getting e-mail from a quarter of my groups (Yahoo aren't coping too well...!), I've had close on 200 e-mails today - who knows what next week will bring.
Somehow, judging by the increase in e-mail traffic, I can't help feeling they have made a gigantic mistake. Instead of decreasing storage their bandwidth has 'popped'. I have this odd feeling Yahoo is about to hit the dirt.
But then it is a free service...
BTW, on a personal note, I lost my moderator status on the Buffy group this week - guess I should have spent more time there

BTW, when I have mail Buffy says "don't let me interrupt". It was cute at first but now it's getting annoying...

First of all this all in my opinion...
I am glad Buffy is over and no I will not get any of the season DVDs. Now if it was Star Trek, yes.
Second, you all should try Google for your searches and MSN for your chatting.
IMHO of course so please no flameing!

Don't know what is up with that one. I hope that was some sort of joke.
