Default How to create a such a forum

I am asking about the following forum:

http://www.vistaheads.com/forums/

If you see this forum it is pulling Microsoft NewsGroup content and alos content from many other sites. So which program/tool they are using.

Tht seems to b a nice way to monetize a site.

Sorry for my ignorance a NOOB here.

whats googles take on this ? as its dupe content google will all ready have these topics indexed in its google groups ? I know it is a easy way to get nice free content but with the dupe content you might end up in the surps. Also what to stop people posting links to the ynewsgroups that they know you posting direct to your forums.

I guess it does allow others on your forum to post to replies to the news group posts but just worried about the dupe content rule.

honestly google doesnt really penalize it at all ive built a couple hundred forums with usenet feeds and every one indexes well, and ive gotten up to a pr6 with little effort on one site. so no it doesnt penalize it like they normally do with regular web content.. every forum is different thats how google looks at it. Take a look at hostingforum.ca and look up the keyword hosting forum in google and see what he serps say. powerful tools.

Thanks Cobby I will take a look at this. I was goggling and found loads of sites doing this. One way to get free content I guess, and gets normal members to start up conversations. But I guess the posts do not get posted back to the newsgroup users?
