Read this Register article today and was wondering if anyone here still use Usenet newsgroups? And if so, what are your top recommended newgroups to subscribe to?
I logged into my Usenet provider yesterday. I read groups related to my hobbies, so not sure my recommendations would do you much good.
Last time I checked out various newsgroups on different topics they were all pretty dead. What topics/which groups are you looking at?
