Get your team blogging
in Tips & Tricks , by Jason R August 25. Tagged group tips blogging
Hello,
Since creating groups in GroupSwim is so easy, you can start
blogs for your organization, team, or anyone for that matter.
Here are a couple of ways to do it:
1. Create an auto-join (under Privacy and
Permissions in Group Settings) group and name it Blogs (or whatever
you want). This gives anyone in the site access to it and anyone
can post a blog and reply
2. Create an
auto-join group but make the blog for one person (one of our
clients’ CEO does this). Here is how you configure it:

Hello,
Here are a couple of pointers to help with the GroupSwim invitation process:
Scenario 1 - Inviting members to the community

2. Fill in the email addresses of the people you want to invite or paste them in. The addresses should be separated by commas. Once you are happy with the invitation, hit the button "Invite Members".
Learn how to train your tags
in Tips & Tricks , by Jason R February 11. Tagged tag tagging best-practice
Hello,
We just added (as of 2/11/08) tag training to GroupSwim. This
gives community and group owners and managers the ability to add
preferred tags at a site level and a group level. It also allows
you to add definitions to tags. For example, you can say a tag
is an example of something else. In this case, Tivo is an
example of DVR (Digital Video Recorder). If our semantic engine
sees the word Tivo, it will immediate suggest Tivo and DVR as
suggested tags. Adding tags and definitions will signficantly
enhance the value of your community and the knowledge it
develops. Tag training is for site and group owners and managers only.
