New Style UI
From some point in 2010 Google began to offer a new user interface (termed 'new-style'), in addition to the existing interface termed 'old-style', with a note on the old style interface stating that the old-style interface would be 'disappearing shortly'. Despite this claim, the old style interface remains a choice as of 2012.
The new-style interface as opposed to the 'paged-approach' of the old-style one, shows messages as a continuous listing with the most recent postings to a group at the top of the list. The new style-interface also suppresses the display of material which for a number of reasons has been 'flagged as abuse' by collapsing such posts. Whilst a number of options to report abuse exist, the option to report potentially illegal content, or links to illegal pornography appear to have been removed from the 'abuse flagging' in the new-style UI for some users.

Famous quotes containing the word style:
“The habit some writers indulge in of perpetual quotation is one it behoves lovers of good literature to protest against, for it is an insidious habit which in the end must cloud the stream of thought, or at least check spontaneity. If it be true that le style c’est l’homme, what is likely to happen if l’homme is for ever eking out his own personality with that of some other individual?”
—Dame Ethel Smyth (1858–1944)
