It has been a while sinceI logged in. I am so glad to see the Groups feature. And you even have Sean O sign up himself! WOW.

It would be nice if a Group could be structured with a few parameters. 

Some groups do not need more than a thread. For instance, Cardio coach is an ongoing challenge where people have to post how well they fared doing a work out. This type of Group needs very few parameters to structure it (Sean O has asked for calories burned)

I would like some sort of visual cue I am in it.  Maybe a stick figure man or something.

Also- could there be a couple template icons groups can choose from when they start up?  Or maybe each category of group has a different default group icon?  I have a feeling most groups will be using whatever the plain jane option is - and I would like to see a variety of icons....</description><comments>http://www.traineo.com/18_530_0.html</comments><pubDate>Tue, 05 Dec 2006 19:01:11 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Reply by Chelsea M</title><link>http://www.traineo.com/18_530_0.html</link><description>@Alisdair - I would love to be able to send a mass message to the group members.  Messages such as meet up plans, encouragement, personal updates, latest trends.</description><comments>http://www.traineo.com/18_530_0.html</comments><pubDate>Fri, 01 Dec 2006 19:15:38 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Reply by Alasdair McLean</title><link>http://www.traineo.com/18_530_0.html</link><description>@Ben + Chelsea -

Thanks for the feedback guys.

We&#039;ll be revising the &#039;Join Group&#039; mechanism shortly.

The &quot;Join Group&quot; button should be on each group page - so you can see some of the group before you join.</description><comments>http://www.traineo.com/18_530_0.html</comments><pubDate>Fri, 01 Dec 2006 19:11:48 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Reply by Jason Hoffman</title><link>http://www.traineo.com/18_530_0.html</link><description>Thanks for the groups, alasdair!</description><comments>http://www.traineo.com/18_530_0.html</comments><pubDate>Fri, 01 Dec 2006 14:24:49 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Reply by Ron Bell</title><link>http://www.traineo.com/18_530_0.html</link><description>Might be nice if the group could provide statistics:  # of pounds lost per member or collectively, progress toward a group weight loss goal.

Thank you, that is another great suggestion - we&amp;#039;re discussing that idea and I agree some form of wiki would be an excellent knowledgebase for the traineo community.

Thanks for the suggestion and feedback - the most important thing is for these ideas to be built around our users so please keep the ideas coming!

We&amp;#039;ll keep you posted on the status of the enhancements we&amp;#039;ve got planned.

Take care,

Alasdair...</description><comments>http://www.traineo.com/18_530_0.html</comments><pubDate>Fri, 01 Dec 2006 13:19:27 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Reply by NYCinephile .</title><link>http://www.traineo.com/18_530_0.html</link><description>@Alisdair: Have you considered creating a Traineo wiki?

We&amp;#039;re still working to add a number of features to the traineo group functionality so we&amp;#039;d love to hear feedback and suggestions to help improve this area of traineo.
