Groups is a new trend of social media because it helps people to share data in bulk very conveniently, saving time and effort. Gmail has also adjusted to this trend, and as such, it has enabled the “Email Groups” feature for everyone. Instead of selecting recipients one by one, simply select the group as “recipients”.
