Newsgroups have more content than IRC or eDonkey which makes this interesting.Rare stuff would be available for longer periods than in conventional usenet.


“Gnewsgroups trys to solve two main problems regarding Usenet and peer-to-peer applications.


Usenet is more and more frequently being filtered and censored.
Peer-to-peer applications are limited to simple search services.
How does it work?


Gnewsgroups is a peer-to-peer application for Windows. Its built on the open-sourced GnucDNA library. GnucDNA provides network support for the Gnutella and Gnutella2 protocols. Gnewsgroups implements Usenet in the Gnutella protocol by performing automatic searches for gnewsgroup and gnewsmessage meta-data”
