Seems the whole google groups system (which I use since my ISP dropped
usenet) went down for two days, and is just now catching up, something that was not apparent to me when I posted the second post. Sorry! |

Google Groups is always slow in showing postings. It's predecessor, Deja News, also was slow. |

It appears to be entirely composed of computing related groups now. |

Google is ten times faster than Deja -- have you used Google news lately? sunsite.dk has just dropped the entire rec.* hierarchy. It appears to be entirely composed of computing related groups now. Sunsite dropped basically all their newsgroups. So then I tried teranews, but I couldn't seem to configure it right, and they had zero customer service, so that was a few bucks (not many) down the drain. Fortunately, earthlink is now working for me -- they seem to have gotten their act together. -- Warm Regards, Claire Petersky Personal page: http://www.geocities.com/cpetersky/ See the books I've set free at: http://bookcrossing.com/referral/Cpetersky |

Fortunately, earthlink is now working for me -- they seem to have gotten their act together. Sunsit still has a measley 4525 groups alt.comp.*, alt.os.*, comp.*, emacs.*, gnu.*, linux.*, opera.* and whole whack of microsoft.public.* crap, etc. The only groups I noticed that aren't necessarily related to computing or their server are the dk.* groups with the dk.marked.privat.cykel being the sole bicycling group I saw. |

Not since I have been using it for about 6 months now. Generally, it
takes about 5 seconds for the message to post. Yesterday seems to have been an atypical system failure. |
