There's a number of web-page interfaces, as well as email bridges,
to many usenet groups. One such is DejaNews, at 

   http://www.dejanews.com/

To read the news from comp.lang.c, submit this:

   http://search.dejanews.com/dnquery.xp?query=~g%20comp.lang.c

(including the percent). If your email is linked to your web
browser you can also post.

Yahoo.com also has a listing of pointers to other publicly available
usenet servers, to which you can directly set your browser's config for
any "news:*" type URL's. Look at:

  http://www.yahoo.com/News_and_Media/Usenet/

Good Luck!
