USENET started long before the technology of discussion forums, chats, medical or company web sites. There are over 100,000 newsgroups covering most any subject. It is not dependant on any company, web site, or country. It lives on because it does not depend on advanced hardware or software technology unavailable in many parts of the world. Information is the key, presentation with Direct-X, Flash Media, Real Audio, and Java animations is a nicety. Oftentimes the information which currently makes it's way to websites starts here.
USENET newsreaders are incorporated in all major browsers. You only need to determine the news server's name from your ISP to configure your browser to connect to USENET.
