The reason for this message today though is to inform all of you an
especially to those who use MSN services.
The following message was sent to me some time proir but I am now
just getting around to passing this along. However I want to inform
you all that being the person I am an I always like to keep everyone
informed an do for many things for you an others as allowed for me
to do an as long as it is within my power you know I will do if I
can.
I have opened a new grp on the service for which MSN stuff will be
intransition of soon an some of this has already transpired. I too
have a cpl grps on MSN as well as being a member of a cpl other
existing grps. The grp that I have opened an its going to need some
help an it is already under construction is:

The message below is what was from the MSN staff an grp director
from Microsoft:
You may have heard rumors that MSN Groups will in closing,
I'd like to respond to those here so that our most active users have
the information you need to manage your groups effectively. It is
true that we are planning to close the MSN Groups service on
February 21, 2009 and will offer you the opportunity to move your
group to our new partner service, Multiply. We understand the
importance of keeping your group together, so we partnered with
Multiply to create a migration process that moves your group to
their service to preserve your online community and its history. The
migration method that Multiply has built for you is still in the
beta stage, we plan to open it next week. Once the service is ready
we'll be sending all of our users an email and will post notices
within the MSN Groups site with more information, including
instructions for beginning the migration process. In the meantime I
encourage you to visit http://Multiply.com to get to know the
service and see some of the thousands of groups they host already.
The natural question to ask in this situation is why we are closing
MSN Groups. It is our goal to provide our customers with the most
current and user friendly technology available today. We made the
difficult decision to close the MSN Groups service as part of an
overall investment in updating and re-aligning our online services
with Windows Live. In the long term we believe that closing the
service is the best way to continue to offer innovative, best of
breed services that help you stay in touch with the people you care
about. It's very important to us that you keep the data you created
using MSN Groups and that is why we have partnered with Multiply, so
you can keep your group going into the future despite the closure of
MSN Groups. <Between today and February 21, 2009 the MSN Groups
service will remain the same as it is now. We will remove the option
to add more storage to your group but other features will remain
until the service is shut down and you can use it the same way you
do today until the date of closure. Watch the site and your email
inbox over the next week as we will post updated information there,
including a more detailed outline of your options and next steps.
Regards, Charlotte Jones, Group Product Manager, Microsoft
