Good point -- NNTP exactly. That said, I haven't run a news reader in years. But I think it's true that mailing lists are on their way to obsolescence, and I've started lots of them in my time.
That said, I'm afraid I wouldn't monitor geowanking as much as I do if it didn't come through my inbox. Traffic is kind of bursty, and unfortunately a lot of it is relatively over my head or outside my experience, but there is still a lot of interesting stuff I pick up through you all (thanks!). But forums are super easy to set up, and as small as the geowanking community is, the admin burden for a phpBB kind of thing probably would be less than email. But not all technologies are right for all communities. Joe -- Joe Germuska [EMAIL PROTECTED] * http://blog.germuska.com "I felt so good I told the leader how to follow." -- Sly Stone
