In addition, you may find that there are user groups (Sigs) or email groups that are useful communities for you to join. Some groups that other computer personnel have found beneficial include:

  • www-sig@umich.edu
    A community focused on web services, design and development in the University.
  • macsig@umich.edu
    A community of Mac users and support personnel across the University.
  • fln@umich.edu
    Stands for "Front Line notify" and often serves as the community to first receive notifications of a system, or network, related problem.
  • winadmins@umich.edu
    The community of Windows administrators across the University.
  • unix.admins@umich.edu
    The community of Unix administrators across the University.

These, and other groups, can be joined via the U-M Directory (mcommunity.umich.edu). Note that some groups are identified in the Directory as not "joinable." Contact the owner of the group to be added to these communities.
