As far as I am concerned, it is not. I prefer to receive all the info
related to Czernowitz in my email box, and not to do the rounds on the
net, browsing the blog for new stuff. Also, I prefer to read stuff
off-line.

I've seen a lot of mailing lists / groups / clubs etc migrate from
Listserv to Forum or Blog format but only a few people followed them.
