I created a group, but it does nothing
will it have its own forum? its own files? Or?

Can anyone explain what is the current functionality of creating a group?

Goto admin panel

Afaik, we cannot have group blogs. But you could create a Group user. Have 'her' create teh group and use the Group user login blog (make a link with Html widget) so that group has blog

The basic group plugins does not allow to have blogs, files, photos for groups. But can be done via other plugins.
