I just posted a brief note via my ISP newsserver.
It appears there as written ( including my own typo) and all chopped up in Google. Why, dear Google brains? Ludovic Mirabel |

Ludovic Mirabel This post appears in google exactly as it appears on my ISP usenet server with outlook. Google being browser based will ajust line lengths to fit the window. Sometime I've seen windows overlap so the adverts and message text are on top of one another. Usually a simple screen maximize or closing the favorites window on the left fixes it. If it persists try resetting your browser text size to medium ScottW |

Ludovic Mirabel, All your posts appear on my screen like this most of the time. You may assume that it makes them pretty hard to read most of the time. It sure looks like you write your posts in wordpad or word or something like that, and you copy and paste it later into your browser/newsreader. It was suggested that Shaw carries a newsfeed, why don't you write to them and ask why you can't subscribe to it. A decent newsclient like Forte (free) Agent or Gravity is needed first, you'll have to download it first, then download all carried groups, and then select the ones you want to subscribe to. Then write a test message and see if it comes through. I wish you good luck! -- "All amps sound alike, but some sound more alike than others". |

Google has a problem and blaming just me will not solve it. Ludovic Mirabel |

Google has a problem and blaming just me will not solve it. I don't blame you, I would love to read your witty, insightful posts, but the abysmal formatting provides me from doing so. Think of me as an encouraging teacher who wants the promising student to do his utmost, because the teacher sees his great potential. ;-) Hundreds, if not thousands of people use Google for their usenet perusals, apparently without the problems you encounter. I'm hardly a computer wizard, so maybe you should turn to someone more knowledgeable to show you how to overcome your difficulties. I see you've found a new friend in mr. Riel, maybe he is able to show you the light ;-) -- "All amps sound alike, but some sound more alike than others". |

Google has a problem and blaming just me will not solve it. Ludovic Mirabel Hi Ludovic, I also had a minor formatting problem with Google. I have always used the web to ng and found that the Google text box was character string sensitive. If I made the line too long it would go to the next line sometimes making odd breaks in the text. I just adapted to a shorter line length to keep the flow coherent ( opinions vary ). I had tried Outlook Express but the ISP seemed to miss posts that were available in the Google version immediately. My posts are blockish and I was ploncked by a line judge once but for the most part the posts get through. I hope you resolve the mystery of your newsreader. |

The Google interface is horrible. However, I just took a quick peek into Google, my posts look fine. The strange thing is, your posts look better in Google as in my newsreader........ ;-) Did you say you use Google? Carry on. Some postings make more sense mincemeated than as intended by the writer.

I know Agent and Free Agent have it. With Agent, I can also sort by topic and by author. In addition, a freestanding NNTP client gives you killfiles, email if you want, the ability to manage all your subscribed groups from the same interface, and on and on and on. NNTP apps have hundreds of features you don't get in a Web-based interface. My question was and is to the Google brains. Why don't they solve this problem? Speaking for myself, your description of how you create your posts was lacking in detail. I have used Google on occasion and my posts weren't munged up like yours are. So it's possible you're doing something in your process that causes the problem. -- A day without Krooger is like a day without arsenic. |

Sometimes I correct anddelete backwards. I think this throws Google inmto confusion. I also click "Enter" like I did now when I reach the end of the page. This is a full and honest confession. I typed this direct into Google and it looks nice and neat. Let's see what happens. This time I did not use back-delete once, Thanks for your tip about NNTP Ludovic M. -- A day without Krooger is like a day without arsenic. |
