A little useful bit of information stored in the nether regions of my brain: as far as I understand it, http://www.usenetserver.com is actually one of Google's primary newsfeeds for their website (if not THE primary news feed). They push gigs and gigs and gigs a day. If this is the case, then (thank goodness) Google is more of a recipient than a provider of newsfeeds. They got good monthly pricing on client connections too =) _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
