nn allows you to quickly select articles of interest and skip the rest. It also supports efficient article killing and selection of articles by author and subject.
This version of nn reads news from a news server via NNTP (the Network News Transfer Protocol), and can make use of your NNTP server's NOV database, if configured. You must have a news server available - large sites usually provide a site-wide server. (For those familiar with 'nn', this is a client-only version.)
(Having recently used both nn and trn, I think it's a tossup as to which is best, as trn seems to include many of nn's best features. If you're a diehard nn user, "trn -x -XX" will start trn in a mode which somewhat resembles nn.)
