quick guide

[ShmenI]

Hi there
I'm still new to the Newsgroup community, and I was wondering whether there's a quick guide so i could learn more about what exactly are newsgroups, how do the programs work and so on and so forth.
Basically, I'm looking for a noob's guide to newsgroups
Anyone know of a good one?
