Groups in Chatter
At Dreamforce, they showed Chatter with Groups. Should I try to build out Groups on my own as a separate object and tie Chatter using the API / Apex or should I wait for Salesforce to rollout grouping and hashtags..etc.
Thoughts?
With any luck, the product team will be able to deliver groups in the Summer '10 release (~June). It probably doesn't make sense for you to build your own right now.
(Note: I am not on the product team)
+1 for groups.
I would create my own model but it would seem a bit tricky with the lack of the User object to be in the necessary relationshps.
BTW, I created this idea a couple of days ago on this topic:

Groups are also on the Google Wave roadmap, although I don't think there has been any progress since last summer. Would be nice if y'all can come up with a compatible model.
Happy to help here.
