Slyck's Guide to the Newsgroups
http://slyck.com/ng.php
This extremely detailed Usenet tutorial is focused primarily on the binary
side of Usenet. It explains in simple terms how binary content can be
posted to the text-based medium of Usenet, and how to download and
assemble binary articles. Additionally, commentary and reviews of
newsreader software and Usenet service providers are available. If you
don't find the answers you need in the guide itself, don't hesitate to
ask questions in their newsgroup forums (http://slyck.com/forums/viewforum.php?f=9).
