Microsoft is holding an online meeting on May 4 on the topic of Windows Community. I’m wondering whether there might be an agenda item on the company’s decision to discontinue its NNTP newsgroups.
NNTP newsgroups have been Microsoft’s primary public support forums for its products and technologies for over a decade. I heard recently from a couple of my sources about Microsoft’s intent to get users weaned from those public newsgroups and onto Microsoft forums, like Microsoft Answers, TechNet and MSDN instead.
