What a newsgroup is and what a newsgroup is called

1. A newsgroup is a combination of network-based computers, these computers are called news servers, and different users can only connect to the news server through some software, read other people's messages, and can participate in discussions.

2. The newsgroup is a fully interactive super electronic forum, which is a tool for any network user to communicate with each other.

3. The information of the newsgroup is sent to all parts of the world by the newsgroup server, and users can choose the server of their favorite newsgroup to receive this information and participate in the discussion.

4. Newsgroups use special protocols that allow users to access the content they choose to read on newsgroups.

International newsgroups have their own conventions for naming and categorizing. A newsgroup is made up of a number of specific areas of concentration, which form a tree-like structure between groups, and these areas of concentration are called categories. Currently, there are the following main categories in newsgroups:

COMP: Topics for computer professionals and amateurs. Including computer science, software resources, hardware resources, and software information, etc.

SOC: Topics on the Social Sciences.

talk: Some debate or topic that people have been arguing about for a long time.

news: Topics about the newsgroup itself, such as news networks, newsgroup maintenance, and so on.

REC: The theme of leisure and entertainment.

Alt: It's a mess, no prescriptive topic, and any speech can be made here.

misc: The rest of the topics. In newsgroups, everything that can't be clearly categorized is called a misc.

Newsgroups are named at period-interval intervals, and the topic categorization above gives us a glimpse of the main content of the newsgroup. Famous newsgroups.

Usegroups are different from the WWW service, which is free and can be browsed by anyone with access to the Internet, while most newsgroups are an internal service, that is, a company or a school has a server in the local area network, and the discussion board is set up according to the local situation, and it is only open to internal machines, and it cannot be connected from the outside. There are few newsgroups open to the outside world at home and abroad, but they are very useful.

Pentium Newsgroup's largest newsgroup server in China, with more than 20,000 discussion groups, is the only newsgroup in China that can be forwarded to foreign newsgroup servers, although the forwarding is screened, not all of them are transferred to foreign newsgroup servers, but there you can feel what a real newsgroup looks like. Microsoft's newsgroup only discusses computer technology, and the content is relatively monotonous, and the Internet front is connected to the Pentium newsgroup, and the posts posted on the Pentium newsgroup can be seen here in a moment.

Usegroups and www, e-mail, remote login, and file delivery are among the important services provided by the Internet. In foreign countries, newsgroups are known as the top three along with Internet access and e-mail, which shows how widely they are used. Due to various reasons, the number of domestic news servers is very small, and there are few introductions to newsgroups, and most of the users are limited to some veteran Internet worms or college campuses.

When it comes to the Internet, many users tend to be honest with www, e-mail, documents**, ICQ, or even IP**, but they only know the name of the newsgroup, but they don't know the facts. Usegroups are an efficient and useful tool that has four major advantages, but in fact, the virtual sale function of newsgroups is similar to that of today's comprehensive forums. But many years ago, when the cost of Internet access was still very expensive, the cost of Internet access was often billed in seconds.

If you soak in the forum for a long time, you will pay a high amount of money for the Internet. So newsgroups were very popular at that time. With professional clients such as Outlook Express or Agent, you can read and post without real-time ** posting.

After signing up for a newsgroup, you can list its group names and then subscribe to the groups you like. After going online, you can update the posts of these groups in real time, or even just **post the title, **mark the posts you are interested in offline after completion, and then go online like receiving email**. ** Watch offline when you're done.

Posting can also be written offline, just send it online, just like sending and receiving emails. In the era of high Internet fees, this can save a lot of Internet fees. But with the popularity of monthly broadband, the benefits of newsgroups are no longer available.

So newsgroups are almost non-existent these days. Newsgroups such as Wanqian and Xinfan, which were smash hits in the past, have long since become a thing of the past.

A usenet on the Internet is an electronic discussion group that brings together articles published by people who share a common interest in a topic. Here, users can exchange views on certain issues with other users across the globe, share useful information, and help people in need.

While newsgroups and email lists are discussion groups on a topic, they operate differently. The e-mail list is the use of the e-mail function to send the messages subscribed by the user directly to his mailbox; Whereas, a newsgroup uses a special protocol that allows the user to access the content he chooses to read on the newsgroup.

A newsgroup is like a small society, and to be a popular member, the user must pay attention to his behavior in the group. There are some conventions that should be followed: the content of the message should be related to the topic of the group being posted; Make good use of the subject line and summarize the content of the message in the title to save everyone's time; The content of the message should be to the point and not verbose; Quotation of someone else's article should be approved by the author; Pay attention to the words you use, because you can't see the expressions of both sides of the conversation, excessive jokes and inappropriate metaphors can easily lead to misunderstandings.
