Google Groups:

pros:
+ email integration (quick question and quick answer mostly)
+ well known, wide usage (not necessery to sign up for another forum)
+ google power (search) (but when i search a problem, stackowerflow is
first and right result)


cons:
- very (and very) bad interface
- recently unknown issues
- not enough social
- unused tag system (because of email send messages)



we should look alternatives' pros and cons to make right desicion.
