A couple of us have started a brand new, self-help, Yahoo! group, centered around Real World Solutions' electronic controllers.  This would be specific to this brand only.  If you have a RWS EC1, EC2, or EC3 controller, or are planning on installing one in the future, please sign up and get involved.

 

Tracy Crook has been invited, but has not yet signed up.  We are hoping.

thanks Bob.



I am most familiar with the administrative portions of the Yahoo groups, so it was the easiest FOR ME to create it.

Sam;

  

 While I also applaud your efforts and  congratulate you on your initiative and initial success, I have to agree  wholeheartedly with Charlie and with Bob N's suggestion. Matronics lists are so  much more convenient and easy to use while Yahoo is such a PITA with all its  attached garbage. Your new group might be a much larger success with  Matt than with Yahoo. I, for one, definitely won't work with Yahoo, I've become  too spoiled by Matt's format to go back to Yahoo's  clutter. 

  

 Respectfully 

 Bob McC

Bob, FWIW I have the LML, the Yahoo ES group and the AeroElectric list all sent to  my Google gmail account, where they are sent to their own folder labels.

 

They then are all in the same place, in the same format and easy to search in the same way.

 

Works great for me...

John;

  

 Maybe I'm not up to speed on the current state of  Yahoo, but the last time I belonged to a Yahoo list (admittedly several years  ago) I had to go to the Yahoo website, log in, wait for 5 minutes of garbage ads  to unfold, find the list I was interested in, log into that then scroll  through all of the messages to determine what I'd already seen and what was  new.

 The Matronics lists just appear as a current  message from a "friend" in my regular e-mail and what I've already read is  deleted and gone. No fuss, no muss, no hassle, no adverts.

 Sounds from your description that I need to be  re-educated on the current workings of Yahoo. Thank you for the  enlightenment.

Ok <deep breath>... Bob repeatedly tells me that an educational post is always the best route.  So, let me try that approach rather than typing what I would really like to say.

  

 A very good approach before engaging in discussions of this nature is to spend a bit of time learning about the current status of that particular thing.  Many of us have worked with a particular "thing" in the past which left a sour taste in our mouth. However; "things" evolve fairly rapidly (software maybe more so than most things) so what one experienced yesterday may be entirely different today.  In our hobby (aviation), we have the oppurtunity to dispell a HUGE number of myths that have been propogated over the years and are hurtful to aviation.  In the same manner, I believe we should apply these same skills to every aspect of our lives.  Additionally; upon close examination, many folks find that their negative experience while thousands of others are having a positive experience may have something to do with their own lack of understanding or inappropriate use of the "thing". This is often remedied thru some additional education about the "thing".

  

 Thanks Sam.  You did a fine thing, I'm sure it will be very helpful to us EC2/3 users.

  

 Jon

Yahoo Groups subscribers can select the option to have messages sent  

to them via e-mail.  I subscribe to several Yahoo Groups, and am the  

group owner for two others, and never have to go to the web site  

unless I want to change message delivery options.

I don't know what bad experiences guys have had, but to me Yahoo! is easy to take.  It is easy to upload photos and I would also like to build up the share links section so guys can share resources, such as sources for fuel injection parts.  Plus, my learning curve on it is very flat.

 

Tell you what.  If you are interested in the RWS EC2/EC3 controller, sign up and if you have ANY trouble with it, we'll pull you out of it ASAP.  I have it set up so only aviators can join on my approval and only the members can post messages.  Therefore, there should be NO SPAM.  Yes, Yahoo has small adds, ala Google, but I don't even notice them.

 

In reality, I anticipate that posts will be fairly far and few between, since we live in such a small universe.

 Hi all

 I have used PG offline to "manage" yahoo group messages for several years

 now. www.personalgroupware.com

 Great program, lets me download the messages from Yahoo and view, search,

 tag etc on my pc.

 No affiliation just a satisfied user.

Thanks to all who took up my comments and provided the insight and  re-education process. That's the beauty of these lists, continuing education and  new information every day. Yahoo has obviously changed. Past experience  is not always relevant in the fast paced progress of software and  computers. Thanks once again for the enlightenment.
