Ask HN: Review my app: http://moogroups.com - Instant mailing groups

7 pointsby m0digitalover 15 years ago
MooGroups is a service that gives you an instant mailing group. It aims to ease the headache of conversing in a large email thread where people are added and/or removed.<p>The idea was born while interacting with my intramural basketball team. We needed a poll of who was going to be at the game each week. One member created a "group" at one of the many group management sites just so we could send a message and use a poll. With MooGroups, there is no need to signup, no need to manage anything, and you still have access to bells and whistles like polls and attachment archiving.<p>Also, like with traditional email, MooGroups conversations are in a sense "disposable". You send out a group email about an event this weekend and after that, you forget about it. There's no reason to setup a traditional group contact such as in gmail just for a single email.<p>With the embedded polls, this extends the usage possibilities invites, opinion feedback, etc.<p>All feedback welcome!<p>Thanks -Steel

I think it looks pretty cool. I don't have a group I need to set up right now, so it makes it a little tough to really give it a run through.<p>I'll definitely bookmark to check out later though.

Sounds like some aspects of Google Wave. Interesting idea - make it big before Google Wave is released and takes off, or you might have trouble gaining traction. ;)<p>Good luck!

That concept is somewhere in my personal idea list. Now I can cross it out. Well done :)
