I rebind M-w in summary-mode to grab the Archived-at header if there's
no active region, find it very handy for sharing links to gmane (and
it's easy to make a further function to open blog posts in a browser):

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defun gnus-article-gwene/gmane-link ()
  (let ((url (with-current-buffer gnus-original-article-buffer
	       (setq url (gnus-fetch-field "Archived-at")))))
    (if (not (stringp url))
	(gnus-message 1 "No \"Archived-at\" header found.")
      (gnus-replace-in-string url "^<\\|>$" ""))))

(defun gnus-summary-kill-region-or-url-at-point ()
  (interactive)
  (let ((url (gnus-article-gwene/gmane-link)))
    (if (or (region-active-p)
	    (not url))
	(kill-ring-save (region-beginning) (region-end))
      (kill-new url)
      (message "%s" url))))

(add-hook
 'gnus-startup-hook
 (lambda nil
   (define-key gnus-summary-mode-map (kbd "M-w") 'gnus-summary-kill-region-or-url-at-point)))
