2019-10-18 Yahoo Termination

The presentation on downloading the Yahoo Groups – Safari Friends database into the software system PGOffline has been updated. This presentation was made on a Windows PC and as such had a large screen layout. Then I realized that people with a cell phone would have difficulty following the presentation. Therefore the presentation has been refocused to allow everyone to see the critical parts on any device. Also parts of the audio presentation have been clarified and re-synchronized with the visual presentation.

Additionally it is noted on the screen, that the price of the software is $10, but only if we get 200 subscriptions. I missed that salient point on first reading the post from the author. This is a reasonable requirement but I am not sure how that will be implemented given we don’t have any group purchasing plan for anything. So…. it is up to those that consider the information to be of value, whether to spend the full price of $24.95 or wait for a subsequent site to evolve, or find another alternative or find a way to buy 200 licenses. The main objective has been realized which was to save all 19 years of postings. These can now be easily moved to the next site by the current moderator or whoever chooses to take on the next role.
