The end of RemarQ as we know it

August 2000

One popular part of the Net lying outside the Web is the Usenet, containing hundreds of discussion groups for any topic you could think of. Normally you will have to use a special Newsreader to take part in these discussions (included in Netscape and Outlook).

RemarQ and Deja.com have, however, provided Internet-surfers with Web based alternatives. At these sites you can read messages, take part in the discussions and -- what is even more important -- search in the text of the various messages.

Now, however, it seems that RemarQ is history. RemarQ has been acquired by a company called Critical Path, and this company has moved the Usenet content to a new site called Supernews. The service is no longer free, however, the monthly fee varies between USD 13.95 and 99.95. A 30-days trial is available.

We suppose that this means that most of us will go to Deja.com for Newsgroup searching.
