The main advantage of this method is that there is *zero* typing involved,
and, it's a single-tap (and then scrolling) to skim a newsgroup for new
messages.

One improvement on organization is to shorten the default name of the link

FROM: misc.phone.mobile.iphone - Google Groups
TO:   m.p.m.i (or just "iphone")

FROM: comp.mobile.android - Google Groups
TO:   c.m.a (or just "android")

FROM: comp.mobile.ipad - Google Groups
TO:   c.m.i (or just "ipad")

etc.

I now have a folder of these links for single-tap reading of newsgroups,
when/if I want them. Nothing here precludes using a bona-fide Usenet
newsgroup reader (which I also have).
