Group Web Pages
Group pages were introduced in the beta version of October 5, 2006 and discontinued in February 2011. Pages could be edited by group members or group managers and could store files for download. Versions of pages were kept in a similar way to a Wiki.
Group pages were promoted from beta status on January 24, 2007. On September 22, 2010 Google announced plans for turning off the group pages suggesting users to move their content to Google Docs or Google Sites. Starting in November 2010, the group pages became read-only (allowing only viewing/downloading existing content). In February 2011 they were turned-off completely.

Famous quotes containing the words group, web and/or pages:
“Belonging to a group can provide the child with a variety of resources that an individual friendship often cannot—a sense of collective participation, experience with organizational roles, and group support in the enterprise of growing up. Groups also pose for the child some of the most acute problems of social life—of inclusion and exclusion, conformity and independence.”
—Zick Rubin (20th century)
“The spider spinning his web for the unwary fly. The blood is the life, Mr. Renfield.”
—Garrett Fort (1900–1945)
“Mathematics may be compared to a mill of exquisite workmanship, which grinds your stuff to any degree of fineness; but, nevertheless, what you get out depends on what you put in; and as the grandest mill in the world will not extract wheat flour from peascods, so pages of formulae will not get a definite result out of loose data.”
—Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–1895)
