Hi guys, I've made a spiffy new Google Group. It's called Apple Inc. Anyone can join. With some participation, it should turn out pretty sweet. Apple Inc | Google Groups
Maybe one day it will rival MacNN

It looks like Google's proprietary version of Usenet.

Without proper filesharing I assume.. filesharing is the whole point of Usenet.

I don't know about that - I used to frequent comp.sys.mac.system and comp.sys.mac.advocacy in the mid-90s. I never used Usenet for filesharing.

... I never used Usenet without the intention of filesharing..

don't tell me you use the IRC for chatting and bittorrent for downloading game demos..

Ah jeeze, it's not for filesharing, although you can upload files. It is for discussion and the like.
