Time for a quick plug...

Most of you will know about the Nova Owners Yahoo! Group, but for those of you that don't - its here: Clicky (http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/nova_owners/)

Its been rather quiet the past year or two, so its time to reignite it. There's a serious amount of information in there - some months having as many as 2000 posts, with well over 55,000 messages in total.

Those that aren't familiar with mailing lists and newsgroups, its basically a forum but in email form. This means although there is a central page for the group, you don't actually have to visit it to read/post messages. It can all be done via your email.

Some of you who can't possibly live without the NL features will also be happy to note there is a files and photos area, with 20mb storage in each for uploading.. well, files and photos. There's also a links dump, message archive with search, online polls and calendar functions.

To join, follow the link to the group (http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/nova_owners/). If you don't already have a Yahoo! ID, you'll need to get one - its free and shouldn't take more than 2-5 mins. Once you have this sorted, or you already have one, use the Join This Group link, fill in the form, and bingo.

Any problems getting access, or signing up for a Yahoo! ID, reply on here and I'm sure most NLers will be able to help sort you out.

See you there! :D

Ahh yes, I remember those days of up to a hundred messages per day well.

You can set it up so that you only recieve one e-mail which contains all the messages posted that day, if no-one posts then you wont recieve anything.

When I first joined and didn't know about that every message came to me as a seperate e-mail, and that was pre-broadband, so it could take a while to download them all!
