Oh, but yes it is!
no sir, it is not... not in the traditional sense...
Here's where you can post your electronic news bulletins nowadays --
only so much easier than with yesteryear's terminal/modem combo.
i don't see it... you still have to understand the software, create an account some how, configure the software to use the account, pull a list of areas, decide which areas you want to read, pull those areas, finally you get to read and reply...
it is just as easy as reading via some web interface, too... except you only need an account and you don't consume your local drive space...

Do you manage your own servers? If you are not running an IDS/IPS yer doin' it wrong...
