myNewsGroups :) 0.1 Released! First Release!

MyNewsGroups :) is a USENET news client, based totally on a web interface, written in PHP4. It's backended with a MySQL database, which allows us to develop useful tools such as search engines, SPAM filters, subscriptions, stats, and much more.
The web interface of MyNewsGroups :) is very easy to use, and has all the
advantages of the modern webmail systems: You can search through any
news group anywhere in the world without the need of setting up any program or register to a News Server.

MyNewsGroups :) is based on the great work of Florian Amrhein, the developer of NewsPortal (http://www.florian-amrhein.de/newsportal). I simply took his code, GPL licensed, and modified it to add the power of a MySQL database for the storation of the articles posted in the news groups. With the use of MySQL and the complete library of Floh to query the News Server, MyNewsGroups :) can store all the articles in the news groups querying the news server only ONCE

Give it a try!

Txarly :)
