Usenet News is rapidly dwindling.  Major ISPs have dropped or outsourced
news-serving.  Open unmoderated systems needing special software will
not survive on a used-by-all broadband Internet.

Google could have made a good job of something very like News, but did
not.

Can we move to a more modern system, accessible by browser and without
too much advertising and bad formatting?  Can one be recommended, etc.
etc.?
