    MSN Groups
    I've got a number of fandom friends who use MSN Groups for their fandom home. This includes NSync, Thunderbirds, So You Think You Can Dance and Naruto fans. It also includes friends who run fan fiction, role playing and canon discussion groups on MSN Groups. If that's you, then heads up! Your group is likely to have some changes coming soon as Microsoft is turning its existing groups Multiply before they launch their own new Live groups platform.



    No clue how many members of fandom are going to be affected by this change. The last time I took a look at some groups there was about a year ago and that was the role playing community. I think 25,000 fans is probably a conservative underestimate. So if you know any fans who have groups hosted on MSN, give them a heads up to the ownership change that is coming.
