Assignment 2 - Social Learner

Ok, after a catastrophic ending to assignment 1, I am charging into assignment 2 with all guns blazing.  I wanted to create something relevant to me - I figure the more real it is, the easier it might be to know where I'm headed with it!  So I searched "social networking for parents of deaf children" and found a place called AllDeaf.com, which among other various features, allows members to create their own social groups.  So, I have signed up for membership - it seems to be a predominantly (but not exclusively) American community, so I will create an Australian niche!

Okay, so membership is complete - activated by email and now I am going to update my profile and see what the site has to offer...

Profile updated - public/privcate settings, adding of homepage - this I found applicable for the first time in my life!  However, I didn't put it in just yet, because I want to be taken seriously, not just as a student (if you know what I mean!).  Instant messaging - not applicable.  Bio, Location, Hobbies and Occupation - all filled out.  Looking, looking, looking - found discussion forums, photo galleries, social groups - aha!  Looking, looking, looking - can join any of many social groups for deaf people, but can't find anywhere that lets me create my own social group.  Hmmm, I know I read that I could create my own group, so why can't I find it.  Grrr.  Eventually give up and post on a help thread in discussion forum - how can I make my own group?  Awaiting answer...
