Try going to Yahoo Groups and putting in any search term. See what you get back for results. Do the same search in Google Groups. See how you can pare down the findings? Look how methodical it is. Want groups of only a certain size? Easy. Want groups from a certain language or geography? Let’s do that, too.

Super simple, yet powerful.

Communities might be flourishing on Yahoo, but I can FIND them on Google.
