   Its hardly an official move, just an extra channel for those already on,   
   or thinking of trying, facebook to have a place to chat about Blade   
   Runner stuff the way that we used to in here.   
      
   ISPs the world over seem to be dropping Usenet support meaning that we   
   have to resort to free (but mostly spammy) or paid-for services to   
   access newsgroups now, this is the only one I actually maintain an   
   account for. It would be a shame to see it go, but the world, it does   
   keep on changing :(
