I found this task difficult and time consuming. I tried to join a newsgroup using ww.newzbot.com but found the website difficult to navigate and difficult to a find newsgroup to join. I was then going to join another newsgroup however found that many groups charge a fee to join.
What is a Newsgroup?
A usenet newsgroup is a repository usually within the Usenet system, for messages posted from many users in different locations. The term may be confusing to some, because it is usually a discussion group. Newsgroups are technically distinct from, but functionally similar to, discussion forums on the World Wide Web. Newsreader software is used to read newsgroups.
