Found this, like many sites, by accident. It is a wiki site for orchids
where registered members (free) can give and receive information, add or
edit existing orchid information and upload photos. Also has forums.
It's only been around since Dec '07 but looks like it could be
promising, especially with large ISP's killing ABPO with probably all
their newsgroups to follow eventually.

Also, here's another news provider. I receive this through my (small)
ISP and can go direct using our ISP password. Prices seem reasonable and
they're offering a month free to some of the ISP's that killed their
binary groups:
