The decay curve is getting steep. Other than mirrors like Google (who many
newbies think own and run newsgroups anyway), I'll be surprised if Usenet
as we know exists 10 years from now. Most of the functions it originally
served (corp and edu in-house comms, technical lookups and forums) has
already migrated to gooey, GUI web sites.

God forbid. For many topics, finding it all in one or two USENET groups is
much nicer than looking at 100 web forums.
