I, too,absolutely detest the changes Yahoo
has made. I'd much rather pay for their
services, and have the choice to keep things
as they were.

(Ol' Fart: I, too, railfan almost exclusively
via my computer, so I know where you are coming
from.)

Sorry -- I know of no other comparable site
to Yahoo Groups. I tried suggesting to the
owner of one group I've been in for a while
that he migrate the group to TrainWeb -- but
he refused. :( BTW -- TrainWeb has been around
as long as the web has, and is very big, and, as
a real plus, is run by smart, caring railfans.
They love to provide free hosting for many websites.
(For a short while, that group successfully used a
workaround, but that didn't last. :( )

I detest the new FaceBook-like layout of the Yahoo
groups so much that I no longer visit any of my
groups.

Ans the less said about what Yahoo did to their
free mail service, the better. I now can only see
four lines of text when I read or type e-mail --
VERY irritating! I'd LOVE to find a really GOOD
e-mail service that I could pay for, but I have not
yet been able to find anything suitable. I'll let
everyone know if I ever find anything to replace Yahoo.
