The Usenet handbook : a user's guide to Netnews / by Harrison, Mark,1962-(CARDINAL)295198;
"USENET, also called Netnews, is the world's largest discussion forum. It's a place for asking and answering technical questions; arguing about politics, religion, and society; or discussing most scientific, artistic, or humanistic disciplines. You'll be surprised by who you meet; it's common for a simple question to be answered by a noted authority. USENET is also a forum for distributing free software, digitized pictures and sounds, and many other things. With the appropriate licensing, you can even get a complete newspaper." "Although the Internet now carries a lot of USENET's traffic, USENET was around first, and still reaches many places that aren't yet connected to the Internet. If you have an Internet connection, you can read news as part of the deal; but if you don't yet have an Internet connection, you can still participate by finding someone willing to pass a news feed along to you." "This book unlocks USENET for you. It's not just a technical book, although it includes tutorials on the most popular newsreaders for UNIX and Windows (tin, nn, gnus, and Trumpet). It also explains what happens on the Net: where to look for information and what to do with it once you get it. The USENET Handbook gives you an introduction into the culture: netiquette, the private language, and some of the history...including some of the more notable practical jokes and pranks."--Jacket.
