Nobody uses Usenet any more (much to my own personal chagrin as I found it
very useful for many things, as I'm sure others did/do).
Then there must be plenty of nobodies out there. I'm on usenet all the
time and I find there are still a lot of people out there reading and
writing on usenet. Mostly people who aren't big fans of "web boards" and
who prefer a writing culture over one where Ogg grunts and points at
funny little pictures ...
