Google Groups or cu2cu?

Web 4 Comments

So I was using Google Groups to attempt to help me solve a problem this afternoon and decided to see there was a credit union group on there. Surprise, there is not. Mainly just people venting frustrations. Anyone else noticed this? Is there a demand? Cu2CU is doing the same thing, they just aren’t getting the participation.

    I was impressed at first glance with CU2CU, but the lack of participation shows that attractive design doesn’t necessarily equate into users. I think a lot of sites start out with the Field of Dreams mindset – if we build it, they will come.

    It’s actually one of the more nicely designed forums I recall seeing. Looks like it started out wanting to cover everything for everybody.

    Interesting forum! Do you know who started the CU group?

    I didn’t find one in Google Groups anywhere. cu2cu.com is owned by CU Data.

    [...] I’ve posted about previously, I believe that CU’s have an opportunity to use Google Groups not only for public [...]
