Hey, this may be a very stupid question, but how do I post anything or reply to anything on google groups? I cannot find anything like signup or post or something........

Just click "Post a new message to <whatever newsgroup your reading>" and if you dont have an account already click "sign up for your account now"

I just signed up (finally) to rec.skydiving.

I posted my website there and my server displayed OVER 100,000 pages in the past few days.

LOL. Cool, eh ?

Those are things that I put in the temp file for people to download from here. Don't talk to me... talk to the peeps here for downloading it.

Thanx for the help guys, another question is how do I follow up on someones thread ?

This is just my opinion but for any sort of extended usenet viewing or posting I think it would be easier and more enjoyable to use a regular news server and newsreader. I've never actually followed usenet through google.

Yeah.. use Ouloook Xpress for this. You'll be able to follow new messages easier and such.

However, I dont have much problem using the news servers over Google here at work.

For a reply, look for this: Post a follow-up to this message

It is at the bottom of each message.

Have fun.
