ATHENS, Ga.— Please be aware that emails such as the following announcing a new instant messaging service and notes sharing system are spam. The Web sites all point to the Campus Collaboration Project. This project is not endorsed by the University of Georgia.

New Account Activation: 

As part of an initiative to bring new web technologies to campus, we have 
implemented a campus instant messaging and notes sharing system.  This 
new account will allow you to add your classes and easily communicate 
with your classmates online.  There are built-in forums for question/answer, 
and areas to request/share course notes.  We hope to have most students 
in the system this week.  Should you have any questions, please let me know!
