Your continuous feedback and support is vital to our success and that is why we are letting you know before anyone else the details of the exciting upcoming changes.

Starting today in the US, we're introducing new features and product updates to Yahoo! Groups. These changes will arrive in phases and will help you communicate and manage your groups more effectively.

Here's a quick snapshot of what to expect:

And this is just the beginning of additional enhancements to come. Initially features such as Polls, Files and Links will remain the same, but we'll be improving them too, and adding new things along the way. Think of Yahoo! Groups as your improved home, and discover the beauty of each room as we renovate and add in modern accents. Stay tuned to the blog for news on all the upcoming changes. And please share your feedback on our Suggestion Board and the blog. As Group owners and moderators, your support is especially important to this transition.

We hope you are as excited as we are about these upgrades that will allow Yahoo! Groups to continue to be the best place for your communities to live - and thrive - online.
