  newsgroup
       
           One of Usenet's huge collection of topic groups
          or fora.  Usenet groups can be "unmoderated" (anyone can
          post) or "moderated" (submissions are automatically directed
          to a moderator, who edits or filters and then posts the
          results).  Some newsgroups have parallel mailing lists for
          Internet people with no netnews access, with postings to the
          group automatically propagated to the list and vice versa.
          Some moderated groups (especially those which are actually
          gatewayed Internet mailing lists) are distributed as
          "{digests", with groups of postings periodically collected
          into a single large posting with an index.
       
          Among the best-known are comp.lang.c (the C-language forum),
          comp.arch (on computer architectures), comp.Unix.wizards (for
          Unix wizards), rec.arts.sf-lovers (for science-fiction
          fans), and talk.politics.misc (miscellaneous political
          discussions and flamage).
       
          Barry Shein  is alleged to have said,
          "Remember the good old days when you could read all the group
          names in one day?"  This gives a good idea of the growth and
          size of Usenet.
       
          See also netiquette.
