DIGG IT! At MAX last week we launched Adobe Groups, a new social network atop the foundation of the Adobe User Group communities. The idea is to simplify the process of creating a user group, find a user group, and finding like minded people within the community. At launch last week we had 413 User Groups on Adobe Groups. In the last week we have seen over 3000 people join groups and begin exploring the user groups within their area of the globe.
Start a User Group
There are many cities around the globe where we do not have enough Adobe User Groups. If you are interested in starting an official Adobe User Group, I would encourage you to fill out this form. Once complete, the community manager team will contact you with a User Groups starter kit and set-up your group on Adobe Groups.
Having attended Macromedia/Adobe User Group meetings since college, they have had a profound influence on my career. I have learning new skills, presented for the first time publicly on Flash 3, and made lots of friends. I would encourage you to take the time and find a user group in your area and get involved.
Groups also provides a great way to share your contact information with others. The site provides you with a "Network" which allows you to share contact information selectively based on user level.
Groups is under very active development and we are seeing huge growth of the network. As the dust settles I am very hopeful that we will see a new growth of the Adobe User Group community well beyond it's current levels. At MAX we recieved 80 applications for new Adobe User Groups which is 20% growth in 3 days.
Take some time to enjoy Adobe Groups at groups.adobe.com!
Cheers,
Ted :)
