Default Recommendations for newsgroups access or woodworking sites

I have read and posted on rec.woodworking and
alt.binaries.pictures.woodworking (and other groups)for about 10 years.
These groups have been very helpful for the hobbiest woodworker to see other
peoples work, to post my work, and to ask questions regarding techniques,
etc. Unfortunately Comcast is now ending it's access to newsgroups in a
week or so, so I am looking for help regarding my options:
1. Are there any recommendations for woodworking web sites that provide
similar postings of technical questions and posting of project pictures? I
looked on line but haven't found anything equivalent.
2. Any recommendations regarding free or very cheap access to newsgroups?

Quick replys are appreciated as I will be cut off soon.

Thanks, I hate to give up on breadth of information available on these
sites.

I'm replying through newshosting.com. The account I have there costs
about $15 a month, but has essentially unlimited download volume...
They have some pretty good lower cost options too.
Have been able to find just about every group I've been used to (had the
same problem when Roadrunner dropped groups about a year ago...)
