RE: Amphicar-Lovers Forum: IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT - 12-26-2007, 03:45 PM


As long as there is a way to "subscribe" and get all the messages via Email,
this will be great.
If it is we based only, or just has a way to "watch a thread", then we will
be missing a major feature fo the Group.
I just do not have time to go read forum after forum after forum for all my
interests.

Will we have this feature?

Hi All,

After three years of debating the issue, I have decided to move the
Amphicar-Lovers Digest/Forum off of Yahoo to a dedicated site at
http://www.amphicar770.com The cut over will likely take place by the
end of January 2008.

The move is based on feedback from list members. They have asked for
better capabilities to store photos and documents, more powerful
search of the 17,000 existing messages, ability to connect more
easily to other members, etc. I will also be setting up a blogs
session where members may share their amphibious ramblings.
Additionally, I will create a seperate area for IAOC members only and
a link to the IAOC. (Remember, the amphicar-lovers is not the IAOC so
do if you are not a member do join the premiere Amphicar Owners Club
at www.amphicar.com).

I will be migrating the existing YahooGroup archive to the new forum
shortly. This way, you can search back to 2001. For testing purposes,
you can currently search about a year back.

What should you do now? Well, get over to www.amphicar770.com and set
up your account. (many of you have done so already in the past). This
way you will be all set when the cut over takes place. Do start
trying out the various features of the forums, photo gallery, etc.
Send me your feedback to amphicar770@yahoo.com. I am especially
intererested in what you like, dislike, bugs or problems, etc.

Shameless promotion. I have spent a considerable sum of $$ on
software, hosting, etc. and many more hours setting this all up. For
this reason, I have incorporated som Google AdSense links. Do me a
favor and click on some of them. Each time you do, a few pennies
gets sent my way to support keeping this going.

Note: If you are seeing google ads within the messages themselves it
means you are visiting as a guest. Registered users who log-in will
not see these within the messages.

Cheers,

Mike Israel
