Newsgroups are a network of discussion groups where millions of users read postings, or articles, using software called a newsreader. Users can then make comments and ask questions in response to the postings. Thousands of newsgroups exist, covering a wide range of topics. Newsgroups typically fall into a few basic categories. There are newsgroups that have to be pre-approved and cover a specific topic, and there are alternative newsgroups that can be created by anyone and cover any topic of their choosing. Newsgroups are also categorized as either moderated—posts have to be approved—or unmoderated.

Newsgroup names are made up of parts, separated by dots, that indicate the topics covered in the newsgroup. The parts of the name go from least specific to most specific. For example, the group name comp.sys.apple2 discusses computers (a general topic), systems (a computer topic), and Apple II (a specific computer system). Some common group subjects are comp (computers), rec (recreation), and sci (science). Other newsgroups follow a similar order, including alternative groups, which start with alt.
