A newsgroup is a repository usually within the Usenet system, for messages posted from many users at different locations. The term is somewhat confusing, because it is usually a discussion group. Newsgroups are technically distinct from, but functionally similar to, discussion forums on the World Wide Web. Newsreader software (like Outlook Express) is used to read newsgroups. Newsgroups of the 1980s thus became the precursor to the World Wide Web of the 1990s.
