The Legacy marketing group’s discussion forum has switched from Smartgroups.com 
to Yahoo! Groups.
This forum is designed “for all legacy marketing professionals
to discuss issues and share relevant information on all aspects of legacy fundraising”.

The SmartGroups service on which it was originally hosted closed down on 30 November
2006.

Yahoo! Groups offers message archives, polls, file sharing and photos. Members of
the forum can choose to receive email alerts of the latest messages or view the 
latest discussions on the web.

Membership requires approval from the forum’s moderator.

At present there are 44 members but as the list members switch over this figure 
should rise.

The legacy marketing group joins a number of fundraising special interest groups
that use the free Yahoo! Groups service, including prospect-research-uk, Institute
of Fundraising South West, corporate fundraising, and trust fundraising. The charitywebforum
is also hosted on Yahoo! Groups.
