  Listserv

  A discussion group on some topic which operates by email. Comments sent to the listserv are received by all the members of the group. This is often a good place to ask questions, especially if you have done some basic research. Some listsevs are mod erated, others unmoderated.Technical information explaining listserv commands and a very large file with detailed information about listservs is also available.

  Usenet

  A discussion group similar in many ways to a listserv except that (1) the discussion is not carried on by email. Rather whenever you connect to the news group you have access to the discussion that has occurred since last time. Many feel that usenet group participants tend to be less scholarly, more likely to indulge in "flaming" other participants.

  FTP

  File Transfer Protocol: FTP is a procedure for moving files from one computer to another. It is frequently used with large files (e.g. novels), images, and computer programs. FTP sites have collections of files which are available for transfer.
