How to access newsgroups

  • Via the web: some search engines (notably Dejanews and Hotbot ) allow searching of newsgroup postings - very useful if you don't have time to read all the messages.

  • A new commercial service called Talkway allows reading and posting to some newsgroups. As an example, use Talkway to monitor the newsgroup rec.music.early.

  • Using a special program (often included as part of web browsers and mail programs) designed to access newsgroups off-line.
