Usenet II is in a persistent vegetative state these days, but there was a time when i had a good amount of hope for it.  I still believe in the core ideas behind it, but i know now that a widespread implementation would be a much taller task than i expected then.

The maintenance requirements of Usenet are obscenely low compared to the world of web forums. But that's not the perception anymore, because everyone expects binaries, and, well, that's a different game altogether.

There's already an RSS-News gateway out there. It's not really very neat.
