Module 2: Newsgroups

The other day I subscribed to a newsgroup which discussed surfing. I accessed this newsgroup through the news.dcccd.edu server by using Microsoft Outlook. After setting up my account, I sent a message informing the community about a great surfing website. The message was as follows:

Hey all,

http://wannasurf.com/ and it contains reviews and photos of surf spots from
all around the world. Its great for finding new surf spots that you never
knew existed. Check it out!
