Google has improved Google Groups; it's now integrated into Google for Domains. Groups now work like email accounts with shared permissions and mailing list tools with the old Google Usenet web interface.

From the link: "Today, we're happy to announce the launch of Google Groups to Google Apps Premier and Education Edition users". What does this mean for non-premier, non-edu-edition users?

  For the jQuery Google Groups we didn't see much improvement. There was a slight reduction I the amount of spam but we're still getting spoofed, which really hurts. I can't wait to be off groups and on to the new forum fulltime.

    Thanks for the info. I'm working on a Ruby on Rails tutorial book (http://www.railstutorial.org/ http://www.railstutorial.org/), and some readers have started agitating for a forum. Having used Google Groups for my previous book, I was really reluctant to go down that hellish road again. I took a cursory look at Zoho, but didn't drill down very far. Knowing that jQuery is blazing a trail there makes me much likelier to give it a try myself.
