From The Jargon File (version 4.4.7, 29 Dec 2003) [jargon]:
Usenet
/yoos'net/, /yooz?net/, n.
[from ?Users' Network?; the original spelling was USENET, but the
mixed-case form is now widely preferred] A distributed {bboard} (bulletin
board) system supported mainly by Unix machines. Originally implemented in
1979--1980 by Steve Bellovin, Jim Ellis, Tom Truscott, and Steve Daniel at
Duke University and the University of North Carolina, it has swiftly grown
to become international in scope and is now probably the largest
decentralized information utility in existence. As of late 2002, it hosts
over 100,000 {newsgroup}s and an unguessably huge volume of new technical
articles, news, discussion, chatter, and {flamage} every day (and that
leaves out the graphics...).
By the year the Internet hit the mainstream (1994) the original UUCP
transport for Usenet was fading out of use ? almost all Usenet connections
were over Internet links. A lot of newbies and journalists began to refer
to ?Internet newsgroups? as though Usenet was and always had been just
another Internet service. This ignorance greatly annoys experienced
Usenetters.
