Newsgroups are like bulletin boards where you can post any messages on a given topic. There are many newsgroups. Most of foreign language or culture newsgroups are in the "soc.culture" section. Browsers like Netscape or Internet Explorer has a newsgroup reader built in, and you can access and read the newsgroups. If you are on AOL, CompuServe or something similar you may have an entirely different way of accessing newsgroups. Check with your on-line provider.
Use the following links to subscribe a couple of them. Post query to these groups. Sometimes you have to wait 1-2 hours for your messages be on the newsgroups, depending on your news server. Send your messages dealing with newsgroups, information you found on these groups, or any comments you have regarding your experience with the newsgroups.
After finishing your assignment, send your comments to News Box. Thanks!
