Hmmmmm....
For me, a "web forum" is a poor man's mailing list, which itself is a poor
man's Usenet newsgroup.
Web forums are *really* crap and annoying, and I'm struggling to see the
benefits. They seem to be liked by the "Internet == http" generation,
who've often never used a proper Usenet client or threaded mail reader.
A particular gripe is that the "web forums" with which I'm familiar
show me every message in a given thread, not just any NEW messages.
So I have to scroll down trying to remember where I last read up to.
What should take 1 second actually takes 10 :-( :-(
