| What is Usenet? |
 The Usenet is an Internet discussion system that predates the modern Internet. While similar in purpose to forum style websites, the Usenet is a distributed network contained on hundreds of non-centralized servers. The Usenet consists of "newsgroups," topic-based categories that span countless subjects. Much broader in scope than a traditional forum, the Usenet connects millions of people simultaneously across the world. Messages, known as articles or posts, are posted by users on a Usenet server, such as NewsRazor. Once posted, the server propagates this message to other Usenet servers in a peer-to-peer fashion until your post is spread across the world! The Usenet allows you to interact with a widely diverse group of people on virtually any subject matter! |
