Usenet refers to the collection of newsgroups (sometimes called the Big Eight
hierarchies) and a set of agreed-upon rules for distributing and maintaining
them. More than 13,000 newsgroups exist around the world and the majority of
them are a part of Usenet. However, a fairly large number of alternative
newsgroups have emerged outside of Usenet.
