I have no problem with a newsgroup announcement of a web site, whether it is
commercial or non commercial, as long as it is honest, relevant and not done
continuously. After an initial announcement I think it the mention of a web
site should be limited to a brief line or two in the signature below a
posted message. What I do find reprehensible are O.T. commercial
announcements and the dishonest postings that say something like "You should
visit this great web site I found where I got great deals and big savings!"
