I'm interested in discussion groups, source code groups, and the like.

DejaNews was a good service and Google Groups is OK. It's unfortunate
they don't have an NNTP interface. On the other hand it's fantastic
when I want to find a thread I remember from a long time ago.
Google Groups is in my killfile. Find out how to block it there:=

[1] My project is that I'm assembling an archive of Usenet to host it
publicly as a free (libre friendly) service. In particular I'm missing
a few years in the 1990's, which ironically just so happen to be the
years I was most active. Usenet is a treasure trove for history and
education. For example, reading comp.lang.c while I was an
undergraduate student was critical in my understanding of the finer
points of the language.
Doesn't archive.org have Usenet archive?
