Yeah, that’s an issue. There are still several computing-related groups, but everything else is fading away. The only non-computing one I read is misc.news.internet.discuss. The Vancouver Canucks and Montreal Canadiens newsgroups both seem to have died during the past year. The Canadian football group gets the occasional comment. The old alt hierarchies seem slow or crud-infested. But if you want to follow comp.misc or Seamonkey updates, you’re in luck.
