The group function of csdn is now available for beta release.

There have been too many busy things recently. All day is a trivial and annoying thing. It's hard to finish the topic, and then it's a search task. The FAQ plan is displayed, now the group is on. Every one of them is a top priority for me. When will this work end?
It's still time-consuming to manually pick online.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We will finally release the first internal beta version tomorrow. Although it is an incomplete version, it is certainly much better than the internal beta version we launched earlier, finally, some users can use it first. Thanks to zookeeper and the colleagues in charge of development in the BBS group.

I. Why does csdn provide group functions?
Things are clustered by groups of people.
In order to allow people who share the same interests and study technical issues in the same field to find a better communication platform, we launched the group function.
A large number of csdn users have used forums, blogs, books, downloads, and other services. Now we all face a problem: people with the same interests cannot be effectively integrated, for example, there are hundreds of thousands of participants in forums and major forums, and different research directions lead to many very professional problems that cannot be solved, this is because a small number of people who understand this profession are covered up by a large number of problems.
In addition, the current csdn Forum model is no longer able to meet users' discussions on emerging new technologies and more branches. Many users have applied for new versions, even some existing sub-forums may be split and merged, and some technologies cannot belong to the same category separately.
The above reasons allow us to launch group services on the basis of existing forums. In summary, we hope users can find like-minded friends and teachers in their own technical directions, can learn more about csdn and make more friends

Ii. What are the features of csdn group?
