A caution about using free services exclusively. Figure out how to back up your 
stuff regularly.

We have used YahooGroups since the beginning. Then they summarily decided to 
delete all attachments on messages. Years of documents and drafts down the 
drain. 

I now keep copies of all the policies, guidelines, minutes, etc, on our members 
website. 

I have stored somewhere a method of downloading a Google Site but haven’t tried 
it yet. I find Google Docs to be a sea of stuff from several organizations and 
file documents even more slowly than I file paper. I try never to look at them. 
We don’t use them at Takoma Village and use CalendarWiz for our calendar, plus 
a homemade program for reserving the guestrooms.
