Giganews University

I’m using the Usenet (Newsgroups) provider Giganews for several years already and recommend the service to anyone who wants to sneak peak or go knee deep into Usenet. I don’t want to talk about the performance of their servers, the reliability and file retention which sets a very high Industry standard that all the other Usenet Providers have a hard time keeping pace with.

Giganews is one of the few providers who actually provide more than just access to the Usenet. They create useful software like the Giganews Accelerator which increases the speed of the header downloads immensely.

They have created several pages called the Giganews University this time which explains the Usenet to users who are new to this concept. Text and Video are used to explain the various concepts and basics of the Usenet including an explanation about the Usenet, what a user needs to access it and how to use it.

A total of eight videos have been published at the Giganews University, here is the first video entitled Usenet Basics:

As you can see their look professional and explain the concepts in basic terms. Giganews is offering a three day trial for new customers that is good for downloading ten Gigabytes from the Usenet. If you are satisfied your trial account will be changed in the regular account that you have selected during signup.
