I really like niche marketing on yahoo groups, I've found some of my best Black Networking / Biz Women / WAHM circles on yahoo. AND YOU DON'T HAVE TO DEAL WITH A TON OF EMAILS IF YOU DO'NT WANT TO... I get my favorite groups sent to my inbox, and for the rest I opt to read them only online, which is a great feature because practically ever day I'm going online looking at my yahoo groups and checking for the messages most relevant to me. I don't usually focus on the number of members, though its nice to be in a group of 500+ members, its also nice to be in smaller groups where you can make stronger connects.
Here are a few of my favorite spots:
▪ Black Women Who Work at Home
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/networking_black_women_wwah/
▪ Black Entrepreneurs
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/black_entrepreneurs/
▪ Sisters in Business
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Sisters_in_Business/
▪ Black Business Owners Network
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Black_Business_Owners_Network/

*Searching on yahoo groups helps, but many of the groups I found through random web surfing becauase the yahoo groups directory doesn't always show you what your looking for if you don't know the right keywords.
hope this helps
