Q:
Do you know what Grouply is? If so, please explain!
A:
Well,
all I can really say is, "I do now!" I actually received
an e-mail the other day from a loyal reader asking about Grouply
and I have to be honest, I had not heard of it until then.
But, I promise, as soon as I read through the e-mail, I went on another
research frenzy and I ended up with a great knowledge of what Grouply
is and how it can help people just like you! So, if you think this
might be something you're interested in, come along with me as we
explore the wide world of Grouply. You don't want to miss this!
Let's begin with
a brief definition. According to Grouply's Web site, "Grouply
is a free service that provides you with a better way to keep up and
interact with your existing online groups." So, basically, if
you're part of an online group (or several online groups), Grouply
will make your time with those groups much easier. For example, let's
say you're part of a Yahoo! group and a Google group. Now, I don't
know about you, but I sometimes find it hard to keep up with both
of those on a daily basis. As a member, I don't want to miss anything,
but some days, it's just too much. And that's where Grouply steps
in!
With Grouply,
all of your Yahoo! and Google groups are kept together in one place,
which can help you in more ways than one. For instance, it can save
you time. If you're tired of being bombarded with daily messages from
all of your groups, you can use Grouply's Smart Digest to filter everything
out. The Smart Digest is a personalized e-mail that summarizes everything
you receive from your groups, all in one location. It even goes as
far as highlighting certain things that may interest you more so that
you don't have to waste your time scrolling through items that don't.
Grouply even shows
you a cross-group calendar so that you can see everything that's going
on within all your groups on a daily basis. That way, you don't have
to go from Web site to Web site, trying to manage all your groups
at once. You can consolidate all of that together and do it all right
from Grouply's Web site itself. How convenient is that?! Grouply also
helps you connect with other people who are interested in the same
things you are. You can meet new friends, find out what's the most
popular on any given day and just simply stay close to the things
that make you happy.
Now, like I said
before, Grouply is a free service and it only takes a couple minutes
to join. If you'd like to sign up, just visit this Web
site and click on the big, orange Sign Up Now
button. Once you do that, you just need to fill in some information
about yourself and the groups you belong to. When you're done, click
on the Sign Up button and you'll be all set. You
can then go on to create your very own profile, add friends, send
messages and so on. It's so easy to use, you'll be a pro in no time!
So, what are you waiting for? Sign up for Grouply today and start
saving yourself some time and energy when it comes to dealing with
your online groups. Yes!
