Creating a new identity

With Groove, you create new identities so that you can communicate with Groove members using different personae. Thus, new identities you create supplement rather than replace any existing identities. For example, you might have a "professional" identity you use to communicate with work colleagues, but also have a more informal identity you use when talking with friends and family.

To create a new identity:

  1. Open Account Information to display the Identities tab.

  2. Click New Identity.

A blank vCard form appears.

  1. Fill out the form, and click OK.

You must, at minimum, supply a name (which is different from any of your other identities) in the "Full Name" field. Otherwise, for the remaining fields, you can provide only the information you think other Groove users will find useful, or that you feel comfortable making public.
