As a new comer to groups.io, wondering what a database might give me? Can anybody point me at a (public - i.e. one I don't have to join a group to look at) database for an idea, or advise what they have one in their group for?

I'm sure once I have the idea as to why, I'll be able to sort out the how (especially with the advice in the wiki).

Thanks,
Jeremy

Jeremy,

Can anybody point me at a (public - i.e. one I don't have to join a

Nope. Unlike Messages, Calendar or the Wiki, the Database (and the other web features) cannot be made publicly visible (i.e. non-members).

or advise what they have one in their group for?

In my alumni groups I've used them to keep a shared address book for our classmates, and an index of Yearbook pages for each classmate.

My small group just formed and hasn’t used the database function, but I can imagine the following uses for a database:

Thanks to all for their responses - much food for thought.
