NEWSGROUPS

NEWSGROUPS

What are Newsgroups?


Newsgroups are discussion forums or bulletin boards - places where individuals post messages for others to read and respond to. They are discussions on a particular subject consisting of written notes by people around the world and redistributed through Usenet, a world-wide network of news discussion groups.

Once a news group is found, messages can be posted or read. Newsgroups are open to anyone who has access to the Internet. Your message potentially could be read by people all over the world. Newsgroups are different from other Internet discussion forums. Unlike chat forum, which demands your immediate attention and requires you to be fairly brief, newsgroups allow you to post and read longer, more thought-out messages at your leisure.

They are different from mailing lists in that you can choose the specific articles you want to read rather than having them all sent to your mailbox and reading all one by one, and one can join newsgroup-style discussion forums at certain Web sites.
