| Write Stuff | Posted – 12/1/2007 2:11:23 PM | show profile | email poster I'm considering a new website for book groups (NOT an online book group). Members of a book group would create a password-accessible sign in page to communicate and schedule meetings, locations, books, etc. Site might include a blog, book news and ideas. There's nothing like it out there now. Eventually hope to lead to e-commerce or links to e commerce sites. Would love your feedback. Site under construction is www.mybookgroup.org. |

If you want an honest opinion, I know that we wouldn't pay to use a site like yours but I suppose if you got enough interest you could profit via advertising only. Best of luck! |
| Write Stuff | Posted – 12/1/2007 6:29:30 PM | show profile | email poster the site will be free, not paid. I am aware of the many free sites where members of groups can post; this would be a free site with no membership fees. |
| Canadiana | Posted – 12/1/2007 7:06:49 PM | show profile Ah, okay. Well, it sounds interesting enough. |

| writesonwater | Posted – 12/1/2007 11:56:07 PM | show profile It sounds interesting. Have you looked at meetups.com? That's organized regionally. |
| writesonwater | Posted – 12/2/2007 12:03:05 AM | show profile Also, on meetups.com, I have heard good things about it and used it myself. However, I still think your idea's a good one -- just looking at other sites might help you hone your idea, I guess. I suppose you've perused the sites by Barnes & NOble etc. Good luck! |
