Groups
Groups are simply collections of people organized for any reason. Your family is a group, your friends are a group, people interested in motorcycles are a group. It really is up to you what kind of group you create. Some groups are organized formally (such as a club or a team) and some are less formal, like fans of a particular band, video game or football team. Create any group you want, but first look to see what others have created. You may want to join an existing group.
Events
Events are different from groups since they are related to moments in time. Like groups, there are many types of events: New Year’s Eve, Hurricane Katrina, Full Moons, political protests, road races, concerts, your birthday, school graduation, your wedding. These are all events. Anyone on Jumpcut can create an event, so make sure you look to see what’s been created before creating your own.
Now, if you think about this a little bit, you’ll begin to see how interesting it really is. Imagine, for example, coming home from a concert and having immediate access to everyone’s pictures and video from the concert that you can use to make your own movies. Imagine if the band made professional video footage available for you to use to make your own music videos. How fun is that!
Concerts are just one example, and the possibilities really are limitless. In our view, collaborative creation is what “sharing media” is all about, and it’s the number one reason why we’re so excited about this release. As opposed to just watching what other people have uploaded, you can reuse their media and create great looking movies online with music, images, video, titles, and effects. This is only possible on Jumpcut.
So, we’re really looking forward to seeing what you do with these new features. We also have some exciting promotional events coming up soon, so be sure to check back regularly. Oh, and one more thing: we’re still moving fast, so there may be a hiccup here and there. Let us know if something doesn’t work for you (email to info @ jumpcut.com)

$$MAKE LOTS OF QUICK CASH THE EASY WAY$$
==========================================
Dear Internet User,
This article I’ve written is all about the fact where I earned an ASTOUNDING amount of money in less than a month and I’ve decided to share the secrets behind making big bucks in the Mail Order Business.
So all money seekers, read this carefully.
=========================================
**READING THIS COULD CHANGE YOUR LIFE!**
I found this on a bulletin board like this one and decided to try it. A little while back, I was browsing through several newsgroups, just like you are now, and came across an article similar to this that said you could make thousands of dollars within weeks with only an initial investment of $6.00! So I thought, “Yeah right, this must be a scam”, but like most of us, I was curious, so I kept reading. Anyway, it said that you need to send $1.00 to each of the 6 names and address stated in the article. You then place your own name and address in the bottom of the list at #6, and post the article in at least 200 newsgroups. (There are thousands) No catch, that was it. So after thinking it over, and talking to a few people first, I thought about trying it. I figured: “what have I got to lose except 6 stamps and $6.00, right?” Then I invested the measly $6.00. Well GUESS WHAT!!… within 7 days, I started getting money in the mail! I was shocked! I figured it would end soon, but the money just kept coming in. In my first week, I made about $25.00. By the end of the second week I had made a total of over $1,000.00! In the third week I had over $10,000.00 and it’s still growing. This is now my fourth week and I have made just over $42,000.00 and it’s still coming in rapidly. It’s certainly worth $6.00, and 6 stamps, I have spent more than that on the lottery!!
Let me tell you how this works and most importantly, why it works…. Also, make sure you print a copy of this article NOW, so you can get the information off of it as you need it. I promise you that if you follow the directions exactly, that you will start making more money than you thought possible by doing something so easy!
SUGGESTION: Read this entire message carefully! (print it out or download it.) Follow the simple directions and watch the money come in! It’s easy. It’s legal. And, your investment is only $6.00 (Plus postage).
IMPORTANT: This is not a rip-off; it is not indecent; it is not illegal; and it is virtually no risk - it really works!!!! If all of the following instructions are adhered to, you will receive extraordinary dividends.
PLEASE NOTE: Please follow these directions EXACTLY, and $50,000 or more can be yours in 20 to 60 days. This program remains successful because of the honesty and integrity of the participants. Please continue it’s success by carefully adhering to the instructions. You will now become part of the Mail Order business. In this business your product is not solid and tangible, it’s a service. You are in the business of developing Mailing Lists. Many large corporations are happy to pay big bucks for quality lists. However, the money made from the mailing lists is secondary to the income which is made from people like you and me asking to be included in that list.
