The disadvantages of web fora include: * I can't read things in my very efficient email client. Related: * I have to compose my replies in a web browser edit window. * I need to visit periodically and hope that the site makes it possible for me to attend to unread messages without struggling.

Not discussed here are newsgroups, which are perhaps ideal for the sorts of topics commonly found on mailing lists, except perhaps that they're not at all centralized. -- Mason Loring Bliss (( "In the drowsy dark cave of the mind dreams mason@blisses.org )) build their nest with fragments dropped http://blisses.org/ (( from day's caravan." - Rabindranath Tagore
