My neighborhood needs an easy way for residents to email everyone on our street. Is there a better alternative to Google Groups for my situation, or am I overthinking this?
My neighbors on a street of twenty houses keep in touch via email, but it's gotten messy. People's addresses change, people move in and out, and people get left off of messages. I volunteered to set up a group email so that neighbors can send a message to one address and it will go to everyone. I assumed that I would use Google Groups for this, but I am a little concerned about it, as I would like the change to be as simple as possible for my less tech savvy neighbors. Here are my questions:
Is Google Groups a good fit? I know that people can use any email address, but does it require them to create an Google account? Can I avoid that by adding them manually? What is the easiest sign up method, to send invitations or to add members manually? If it's by invitation, will members have to create a password before accepting the invitation? Is there anything else I should know?
I have seen this previous ask, which was helpful. My situation is a little different in that it's a smaller group, some are tech-averse, and we need ONLY a web address with no other features. Would groups.io be a better fit, or should I stick with Google Groups? If I stick with Google Groups, which set up will be easiest for my neighbors to use? |
