As you probably know, I'm looking for work as a programmer, but as everybody wants someone with experience (that I'm struggling to get), I've been forced to do temporary work (short term contracts, not really doing what I want to do) to keep the money coming in. Just in case you're wondering, I do have enough money to get by (so you wont be seeing the back of me :-p). Anyways I'll be moving out of where I am shortly (and loosing the 2mbs cable connection that I have access to) and will probably go with a wireless provider (simply for the flexibility, as I can't guarantee staying in any one place for too long (most wired broadband plan's require a 12 month contract here, and have a reconnection fee)), which doesn't have a news server. My question is, is there any good, cheap (preferably free) news servers that I can hook into (Google and other web based systems are not an option)? I'd rather have complete control over the newsgroups I see. If I choose not to get broadband (I think that will be a mistake!), I won't have an issue. Just a word of warning, I have created a bot that currently records all that goes on here (and some day may post here as well (AI bug strikes again!)). -- Marsh Lion Programmer in disguise
