GroupALoop.com - An Alternative To Online Groups

If for any reason you are unsatisfied with either Yahoo or Google groups and are on the lookout for a viable alternative, chances are a visit to this newly-launched service will sort you out.

In principle, GroupALoop is a free service that is open to anybody, and which has some features that intend to give it an edge over its close competitors.



One of the most notable features is the ability to create unlimited groups within any given group. It can be claimed that this can actually clutter proceedings if not used sparingly, but it is always better to have the chance to do something different than being constricted to tried and tested formulas. Moreover, widgets are featured as a way of attracting further members and showing your allegiance on the sites you visit frequently.

Other features that merit mentioning include a “Lurking” option that effectively enables you to keep the group in your group list without appearing as an actual member, and the ability to add keywords to the group’s description itself.

To sum it up, this is a viable alternative to related services which is already acquiring an interesting shape. See it in action for yourself at www.groupaloop.com and draw your own conclusions.
