Took a tour of usenet sites and newzbot but thought I would cut to the chase and use the link to access Usenet through Google from Module 2 tasks - time is getting away!
There is an amazing amount of newsgroups I feel naive that until this task, I really had no idea that these really existed. So after some perusing, I joined 'Dumbledore’s army' (thought it was most likely to be G rated (I have seen some creepy stuff over the past few days watching these newsgroups) and would be a bit of fun.
I chose this because I have read all of the Harry Potter novels (yes I am a child at heart!) and chose this one because of its 'about us description': "It is our choices, Harry, that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities" - Albus Dumbledore (Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets).

Recently, the group has been concerned with the recent influx of spam and in fact many of the newsgroups I looked at had a lot of spam and particularly adult content.
Here is my post:

If I ever get to meet my patronus I hope it would be a swan...as they are serene but there's a lot going on under the surface lol. Swans are symbol of love and I like the idea of that an 'ugly duckling' can transform into a beautiful swan. I think that Hermione's character was one that transformed the most throughout the HP series...what do you think?
