MSN groups will be closing down in Feb 2009. They suggest everyone to move to Multiply. What VOLT group going to do?

Yes, we are aware of this. We are investigating our options.

Thanks,

I am eager to know your decision as I also own one group in MSN. I am just wondering whether to move to Multiply or not. Your decision will help me to decide.

When is the Windows Live Groups service starting? Why is Microsoft suggesting a move to a third-party instead of MSN to Windows Live?

That is a good question! Here are the three options offered:
    * Option 1: Automatically move your group and its data. We have established a partnership with Multiply, an online group and media sharing service so our users can choose to migrate their group to Multiply's service. Choosing this option is free and easy to use: Multiply will move the Group's content on your behalf and invite members to re-join your group in its new location. To begin the migration click here.
    * Option 2: Start again on another service. You can start from scratch and create your group on a different service but we recommend having your Group moved automatically by Multiply. This will enable your Group to transition easily and continue to enjoy the community you have created.
    * Option 3: Start again on Windows Live Groups. To further expand our mix of communications and sharing services, Windows Live will launch a new service this autumn, Windows Live Groups. We plan to launch Windows Live Groups to the public in the coming weeks as a service that helps small groups or clubs collaborate online.

Why isn't there an option to automatically move group and its data to Windows Live Groups? Why does the 3rd Option require starting again afresh?
