If you've searched for a group today you may have noticed that things look a bit
different. Today, we introduced the first phase of our new groups search
solution which will help improve the "searchability" of groups. To try it
yourself, just visit http://groups.yahoo.com and search for a group in the "Find
a Group" search box.

This recent redesign was the result of feedback from users like you, and is the
first step in a series of changes to search that will help you find the groups
that are the most relevant and right for you.

We've added features like: new sorting options, updated group information, and
quick links that enable you to "Join" a group, right from the search page.

You can find a full walk-through of all the new features on the Yahoo! Groups
blog (Post found here:
http://www.ygroupsblog.com/blog/2009/04/09/a-new-look-for-groups-search/).

All of these features are currently available in all Yahoo! Groups searches
(however, they're not currently available when you're browsing a group), so be
sure to give them a try and let us know what you think by leaving a comment on
the blog! (http://www.ygroupsblog.com) We'll be sure to keep you updated on
additional updates to search as they become available.
