For people with multiple interests having to be subscribed to multiple fora is a hassle and getting to know all the different ways they work is a nightmare. To save myself time I mostly take advantage of letting fora of interest send articles as email. If they allow posting via email I appreciate that. So what's the advantage of a forum? I mean: for me? Usenet anybody? Just one newsreader to rule them all, killfile etc ...
