OK so many are now using Twitface but this sort of place has a place I feel
as for a start its pure and has no adverts, its also not affected by the
vagaries of policy of the organisation which runs it, and there are numerous
free servers out there to avoid Googles daft interface.
Eternal Septemberis the one I use.
I guess with the groowth of blind people using smart phones it could be
there is no client program which is easy to use on Usenet, I've not tried to
find them as I prefer to leave things at home when I'm out.

I am giving up on connecting with my albasani account until someone
replies to my queries for information and or help.
I've tried at least a half dozen different times, over a couple of
years, and now with multiple usenet programs and for some reason can not
auth with some, and thunderbird just shows me no groups/not sure it it
connects or not.
Is eternal September still working well do they take new members, and
what are the limits on their free accounts?
Please post any info I may need to sign up you can think of.
I just signed up with another server, think out of Holland,
xsusenet.com
it is called.
It has a download speed limit, but never got as fast as that from
albasani that I can remember anyway...lol
I don't know what the data cap is, and if it is not too low this is OK,
no ssl however on their free accounts/not necessary exactly, but would
be nice.
