hi there
i have contacted you before on here and also timesonline directly to ask if it would be possible to make the groups more interactive?

i was told that they were looking into it, but i have had no further response.

as i run the weightwatchers group on this site with nearly 300 members, i really think it would be helpful if we could just respond within the group, perhaps even have instant messaging or a live chat room.

i would also like to be able to contact my members with info, motivational messages etc and really help this site work for them.

any comments on this
thanks
looby

Hi Looby,

This can be done I think - in fact if you see the Ab Fab group it is being used for all of these things quoted here.

Although it isn't actually a chat room - it is almost being used as such.

You can check who is online (using the members search), you can send each other messages and you can set up threads for various things - recipes, motivation, (commiseration!), support - whatever you want!

All the best,
Herbie
