   No, don't - it forces you to use the web interface (which is terrible)   
   and forces us to see your messages in awful formatting. And there's a   
   number of people actively killfile all google groups posters.   
      
   Sign up for a free http://www.eternal-september.org/ account instead,   
   and carry on using your current Usenet software.
