Announcing: SII Yahoo Group

As a supplement to this blog, we have created a SII Yahoo group for discussions. Although it's called SII, you can discuss any article on this blog or any subject related to the Criminal Justice System.

This is not a message board. You will not be allowed to post pictures of yourself, or to have avatars, or to private message other members.

Anyone can join, but all messages will be moderated. That simply means that they have to be approved before they are published. This is to protect the group members against harassment and spam. This will naturally slow down the pace. We expect posts to be reviewed at least twice daily, but during holidays or other times we may go a day or two.

The only rule we have is mutual respect. That means:

• No name calling
• No ridicule
• No copying messages to other boards (unless you have permission from the author)
• No profanity or vulgar language

The really nice feature of Yahoo groups is that you can receive each message as an email, or you can receive a Daily Digest.

To join, just click http://groups.yahoo.com/group/SIIgroup.

You do not have to join the Yahoo group to continue receiving email notifications of new articles on this blog.
