See those little ads over there to the side, "ads by google"?

Well if I am providing the content and it for commercial purposes then I
am
the one who is going to get paid. So no I won't be answering any posts
that
come from homerepairlive.

Now if you want help join us in the newsgroup I will answer your
questions.
If you want site content write your own.

So Colbyt how do you feel about YOUR content being used by a multi billion
dollar company known as Google? Guess what, they provide a web based
newsreader too and they also have ads on the right side.

In my opinion the questions being asked by homerepairlive users haven't
been very descriptive. I think that may be because the site makes it so
easy to post. Some efforts need to be made on that end to make sure posts
are descriptive and helpful to the community as a whole.

I think Usenet has been a great resource on the internet that has been
"hidden" from the realm of the average internet user. Heck, even advanced
internet users may have never used a newsreader. However, it is a great
tool to bring people together and talk about a common purpose.

Overall, I think steps need to be made by HomeRepairLive that better
informs the user as far as posting etiquette and the like, but in the end
I think it may bring a lot of new people that can really add value to this
newsgroup. Are you going to tell me that contractors, plumbers,
electricians, etc. who have never even heard of Usenet don't have valuable
information to give? HomeRepairLive could possibly be the intro they need
to tap into an incredibly community.

My 2 cents.

Mike
