Google EXPANDS THEIR ARCHIVES! Yay!

Good news Usenet nuts! Google announced today that the Usenet archives are back. You can now search back to May 1995. You can even search by date at http://groups.google.com/advanced_group_search.

"This archive contains more than 650 million messages," Google's David Krane told me. And they want to keep filling it out. "Our Usenet engineering team is developing technology that will enable users to post messages to specific newsgroups. We aim to release this feature by mid-May 2001, at the latest."
