How to Get Started with Usenet in Three Steps

<i>"Usenet is a wonderful service for finding and downloading digital media"</i><p>This sentence alone makes me feel old and sad.

I wish articles like this wouldn't ruin it for everybody else.

Does anyone still uses Usenet for discussions? I guess I was too late with creating website for reading Usenet (just text, no binaries), something like Thunderbird Usenet reader in your browser. <a href="http://www.newswebreader.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.newswebreader.com</a>

Why post an article from 2010 that is significantly out of date?

I remember back in the 90s time warner's news servers were only nntp://news-server/ and we could see our neighbor's computers via Windos 95/98's "Network Neighborhood".<p>Good times.
