Don't know if it's still true, but i heard once the the UK phone number portability system was run on a yahoo group.

(a quick google shows the rumors were true.. https://www.ofcom.org.uk/__data/assets/pdf_file/0027/56646/s...)




That is hilarious.

"A review might consider whether it is befitting for the world's sixth largest economy to manage critical national infrastructure via a Yahoo group but we would hope that is obvious."


As an email mailing list, the Yahoo Group will continue to work. The website functionality is what's being lost.


Not trying to spam.

I'm offering a service that will extract all the yahoo group data from both private/public yahoo groups data for a fee.

My service: Includes - Public groups backup - Private groups extraction (will require admin credentials for the account) - Extraction formats include excel, csv and html

Not Included in the backup - Importing to new platform - Data Translation/Data cleaning - Additional post backup requests

Total cost: - Full backup $500

Payment details: - $250 for the first installment. - $250 after the last sample excel file is sent

After the first payment I will start work. Once I have completed the data backup, I will send a excel file with 10% of the final backup file as verification of my work. I will send the file once the final $250 payment is complete.

If your interested, please contact me at [email protected]
