that is essentially the format i've employed already, each group is sorted by high level meta topic "the philosophers corner", "i love dance music", "meet the neighbors", "tech geeks corner", "the screening room", "home coffee roasters/coffee lovers", etc etc.. :)   each has a jot block under the group description and quite prominenly in the main content. then the timeline loads under that and context area for + is above the jot block.

this does remind me though where it says "Page:" i need to alter the key to "Group Chat for " GroupIDName  :)  Thats just a key in the polyglot engine, right?  

so far nobody is really using the discussions, or the site, although i have new users signing up every day, have written over 3,000 words in the wiki and have a walk through video for unauthenticated on the main FQDN page when you arrive..      so i'm learning something new and just taking it day by day, i can't incentivize people to use something, especially if they're not in the habit of using it yet.   .. these things take time.  :D  

thanks Andrew.
