This Friday 8/29/08, we will be adding several much-requested features to your group: 1. Discussion forums: Simple discussion spaces for you and your members. (You can turn discussions off in your management control panel if you like.) 2. Enhanced roster: Searchable list of group members. 3. Digest emails: Daily or weekly digests of new discussion topics which your members may choose to receive. (We will be turning digests on for all current group members soon, and prompting them to set to their own preference.) 4. Group home page: A private space for your members on LinkedIn. We're confident that these new features will spur communication, promote collaboration, and make your group more valuable to you and your members. We hope you can come by LinkedIn on Friday morning to check out the new functionality and get a group discussion going by posting a welcome message." - Since I moderate 3 LinkedIn groups ...sounds very similar to Facebook Groups and NING doesn't it?! - Susan Beebe

These new GROUP Features will make LinkedIn much more *interactive* and powerful for groups, networking, corporate forums, etc... I am excited about this launch! - Susan Beebe
