Hi

In a post about five days ago someone posted the name of a website that
lists the worlds most popular and active newsgroups for any subject.

You could key in any word such as "music" "classical" and it would show a
list of the most active newsgroups for any given period.

It looked very useful but I can't find the post again. Can anybody help me
please?

Kind Rgds

Was it this: http://groups-beta.google.com/groups/dir?q=music ?

THATS the beast!!! Thanks RA

Anybody else reading this thread, thats a fantastic resource..if you want to
find out which forums are active for which subject, especially as I cannot
for some reason see the full descriptions and number of posts in the
dialogue box in my newsreader.
