Groups@AOL Beta

Internet giant America Online is currently beta testing a new service from the company. Dubbed Groups@AOL, the service allows any AOL user (instant messenger screen names not valid), to form private groups of friends and family where various actions can take place. According to the Web site, "You can post photos from your latest gathering, leave private notes with friends throughout the day, plan parties and outings in a shared calendar, and much more." People must be invited by the group creator to join, keeping them private and tailored to your liking. For more information visit the Groups@AOL Web site.
