According to arhieve.org, the last posted was in Feb. 2006. Grant, how about create a new page here -- list of all the websites you mentioned above -- and have a little description ("About" which you'll find on many websites) for each website.

Thanks! Again, this post is about real website and domain. I am pretty sure USA-L has never had its own website and/or domain. Maybe someday? You just did. Thanks!

That's far more than 10 years and one of the first Deaf news to go around. Then they were on e-Groups which was bought by Yahoo. Today, you can find USA-L News on Deaf Times. It was once believed USA-L News put Silent News out of business. That's not true. Please give credit where it is due. Thank you.

It barely survived when Internet just born plus we had another deaf newspaper like DeafLife, DeafNation, and Newswaves. Note: All are hard-copy paper.
