This class is an introduction to newsgroups, including the numerous discussion groups generated around the world that are collectively known as Usenet.

You can now read and post messages into USENET discussion groups using Netscape Newsgroups.
Newsgroups, formly known as Collabra, is a USENET client software component of Netscape Communicator.
CSULB classroom discussion groups are available on the tabloid.csulb.edu server.
If you are using an earlier version of Netscape, see document Netscape News for Macintosh (ACS-453).
CSULB supports one USENET Server: Tabloid (for all outside newsgroups).
Before subscribing to USENET discussion groups, launch Netscape Communicator Messenger and scroll to the bottom of the "Folder Names" column.
A subject window (upper) displays the subject headings for a selected newsgroup's posted messages.

chat, newsgroups, Internet, Usenet Newsgroups, newsreader, IRC, servers.
Chat is a general term for real-time communication on the Internet or Web.
Chat rooms -- Web chat sites that use the browser client software interface to create combined text and graphic environments for chat participants.
IRC servers are connected through the Internet to form an IRC network.
Channel operator's nickname is preceded by an "at" symbol.
Other programs use the Internet for chat communication links but do not connect to IRC servers.
Periodically news servers connect to each other and compare a list of articles that each currently is storing.
Usenet was one of the first large distributed information databases in the world.
Most e-mail programs today include newsreader features.

The first safe harbor provision excuses liability for damages based on the system operator's transmission or routing of infringing materials through its system or network.
Since statutory damages for copyright infringement can reach as much as $100,000 per offense and actual damage awards may be even higher, it's wise to register that information.
The Directive sets out to ensure the protection of the privacy rights of individuals with respect to the processing of their personal data, and requires that all Member States promulgate national laws in compliance with the Directive.

ITD recommends tin and trn (another command-based newsreader for Unix) for those who wish to read Usenet News in the Campus Computing Sites.
At this level, you select the newsgroup you wish to read, as well as subscribe to or unsubscribe from groups.

Tim Berners-Lee a British physicist proposed the Web as a protocol for an Internet distribution system among physics research groups Later adopted by others who formed a consortium (W3) to develop Web standards [http://www.w3.org/] The Web is a wide-area hypermedia information retrieval initiative information system that links data from many Internet services under one set of protocols (HTML).
It enables interactive communication between a source and receiver and thereby gives consumers some control over the communication.

newsgroups, Bionet, archives, BIOSCI, Usenet, internet, hierarchy.
Newsgroups constitute a major proportion of the traffic carried over the Internet.
They are similar to e-mail in that a person with a computer, the necessary software and an Internet connection can contribute to them and receive replies; they are dissimilar in that an e-mail is sent to one or a few known people whereas a message (or article) posted to a Usenet newsgroup can, in theory, be read by anyone in the world.
The Bionet.* news hierarchy contains the BIOSCI newsgroups.
If you are intending to post to a new newsgroup, it would be well worth browsing a few months' archives to find out if anyone is likely to read your message!
