Well... the fat lady is singing here. Have newsgroups jumped the shark?
I'm going to miss you lecherous lot.

Unless you're sexting us on your cel, you have a PC/ ISP.

If it works, bookmark it.

Ewww... sexting. I do have teen aged kids, you know.

Damn... I'd forgotten about Google groups. I can even do that from work.
Thanks for that, Playa.

Try this: http://www.motzarella.org/
I've been using their service for a couple of years now for RGMW. It not
only has most of the newgroups carried but they also have access on port 80
available too - so if port 119 is blocked where you work you can simply
point your news reader at the reader80 server and so long as they're not
also sniffing for HTTP traffic you'll be on the groups in no time, and if
they are you can use the NNTPS service on reader443 which is encrypted ;)

Just like herpes... you never really can rid of RGMW. ;)

I'm primarily using Motzarella, but I've got an Easynews account
too as I don't seem to be able to get to the font groups on Motz. Time
Warner dropped their Usenet service months ago (but of course their
monthly fees didn't decrease - go figure), and Comcast greatly reduced
their service - thanks to that ass-hat from NY. Of course it was done
to protect the children from the porn on usenet - by driving all the
regular users to the services the porno-hounds all use.
