What the difference between newsgroup and websites?
Wow, that's a little difficult but I'll try. First you need to understand the difference between the Internet and the World Wide Web (WWW). The Internet is a network of interconnected locations that are able to send, receive and forward electronic data. The WWW is a collection of addresses (websites) that use the Internet for people to visit them. A newsgroup is one of many thousands of special interest groups that make up the Usenet. When a person posts a message on a newsgroup the Internet is used to send copies of that message to all of the many places (hosts) on the Internet that subscribe to Usenet. So the message is repeated at many locations all over the world and people can go to any of many locations/hosts that subscribe to Usenet to download/read newsgroup messages. Whereas, a website is in a single location. If you post a message on a website people must go to the specific address of that website to see what you posted. If someone puts an inappropriate message on a website the owner of that website can remove it. A message posted to a newsgroup is sent to thousands of different places all over the world and, therefore, impossible to delete. This is a flawed explanation but it was about the best I could do in a few? words.
How do you download from usenet?
You need 3 things to download from Usenet. The first is a Usenet Newsgroups provider, such as Newshosting or Giganews. These providers charge for access but you can get free trials to start you off. It should be noted that the free providers are rubbish as you get incomplete files and slow speeds. The second thing you need is a Usenet client such as Grabit or SABnzbd, both are totally free. The third and last thing you need are NZB files, think of these as torrent type files except for newsgroups. For complete details on how to download - please visit http://usenetdownloadguide.com
When was the Internet first available in Pakistan?
The first internet service in Pakistan was the dial-up email service in 1993 by Imran-Net. I still remember the first time I used the service :) We used to have these long ridiculous email addresses. The software included email and newsgroup services, and when you dialled in, it would send and receive the emails and get the latest newsgroup entries from the servers. It was hellish expensive and if remember correctly, I paid Rs. 400 for one hour!
