The Gregg Group was founded 22 May 2004, prompted by the lack of online shorthand resources. As the primary use for shorthand — business and legal recording — has waned in recent decades, we generally acclaim the skill as a hobby or personal tool. The purpose of the group is to promote the use of Gregg systems of shorthand by providing advice to beginners, support for students, and an association of users of this efficient, attractive, and enjoyable method of writing.
The right hand side of the page (the blue bar), more specifically the area below the “Report Abuse” link, can be customized to add links, messages, or any html code. If you have ideas on how to use this space (or not use it), could you let me know?
Likewise, if you have suggestions to the site, please post them here.

Well, since we're all jumping in with suggestions, I'll add mine.
Sorry, Chuck, came up entirely blank.
I love that the main topics are across the top, and down the centre of the group.
I couldn't think of a single thing that we might want to have in the blue bar.
Then I thought maybe we could have some links:
Andrew's site
Marc's site
Ms Letha's site
Maybe the competitions' sites
Teeline
teelineshorthand.org
onlineshorthand.com
Pitman
pitmanshorthand.homestead.com
stenold.org – they have Pitman Tamil shorthand!

Those are good ideas.
Those are good ideas, thanks!
Hi Chuck,
I have been helped a lot by your site. Thanks for providing the work so all this information is available.
My only idea is it would be great to have some of the old posts highlighted. Since I am new to shorthand I could stand to read a lot about it. I have started going back through the years of posts that are here. I have found that the search is not very reliable. I will have gone back through posts and know a particular post exists but can't find it with the search. I normally find it manually by browsing through the archives.
Anyway my idea is to have some of these old posts highlighted in a new post. For instance your reply to my writing question included a couple links to old posts that were terrific. It was better than a search because I knew that you thought that the solutions and information was correct.
Anyway, thank you again for the work you have put into this. I am finding it very helpful as I learn.

I like your idea a lot. How about if I put links on the right side for people that are starting with common questions?
Mcbud, that would be very helpful. Thank you!
The sidebar links are great! Thanks!
Mcbud, thank you very much for the links. If I think of something else, I'll post it. The ones you have up are a big help.
You're welcome. If you think of a common question, let me know.
I love the common questions down the right! I was going to suggest recent entries and replies, but my current way works well enough. The common questions are a better idea.
