Google Groups allows you to participate in discussions that span tens of thousands of topics. These topic groups include a great number of the Usenet groups as well as proprietary Google Groups. You can search through Usenet all the way back to 1981 or choose to read current postings.
Create your own Google group that can act like a Usenet group, an e-mail mailing list, or a newsletter. Make sure you sign up for your Google Group promotion box so you can advertise your group on your personal Web page created using Google Page Creator, which is covered in the next chapter.
