boingboing - in spite of the name - is actually a widely read blog.

i've often thought blogging was kind of like a mailing list where only one
person could initiate threads and with an archiver that only displayed
the thread starters on the archive pages. a very twisted person could
probably hack mailman to be blogging software - and when you were done
you could read/post on the blog via the web or your mua.
but then i still want an all emacs distro (everything from init on down
written in elisp and launched by emacs) so what do i know?
