And how has your experience been ?
I'm in 7-8 groups with very mixed results.
Guess measured up to this site they all fail in comparison .

I am also moderator of the US-Mexican Numismatic Association Yahoo Group. It hasn't had traffic in 5+ years.
In my opinion, Yahoo Groups is a wasteland. (And if I may add a personal note, Yahoo destroyed egroups.com when they bought them and turned it into Yahoo Groups.)
A regular forum format is much more prefered and I'm sure would attract more members.
But I can't ignore the informative posts often made in these forums which I therefore check regularly -
CoinForgeryDiscussionList - For exchanging ideas and information about Coin Forgeries and Alterations
Moneta-L - This list is dedicated to the joys of ancient coin collecting.
islamic_coins - Islamic Coins Group
Ancient_Chinese_Coins - A forum for the discussion and trading of Chinese Coins Pre-1800 AD
And another half dozen history groups.
But IMO Yahoo Groups is an antiquated format that needs to die. I wish the above groups would move to a regular forum format. I would definitely donate to make it happen.
