NewsBin History

NewsBin was first released as shareware in 1995 in the Indiana State University
shareware libraries in the Winsock (http://papa.indstate.edu:8888/ftp/main!Windows95!News.html) section.

On October 24, 1997, our website newsbin.com (http://www.newsbin.com) went live and we started hosting the downloads 
ourselves and tried to get serious about making some extra cash.  Here is a flashback to
what our website looked like in November, 1998 (http://web.archive.org/web/19981212031351/www.newsbin.com/).  Ouch!
