I am reading dozens of mailing lists and if each of them had a different user interface, with different colors, placement, etc., I would go crazy. it would be nice if I could read and write to glorum from my t text/html 2006-12-14T03:02:52+01:00 http://www.glorum.com mario http://www.glorum.com/view/88 Hi Yuv, thanks for the feedback. - Participating from a (possibly 3rd party) desktop application would be nice. It will eventually come down to considerations about spam and abuses. I would open it with an API. The no-moderators requirement will probably demand certain compromises and barriers. I guess it is very early to evaluate that. Right now RSS makes almost everything readable externally, if you use an RSS aggregator.

I assume you are the developer of Glorum from what I read. Some more usability feedback - in order of how I experienced it. This morning I open my email. Knowing that something has changed in my world (i.e. I registered here) I wanted to be sure I don't lose emails. I went into the Junk mailbox and Yahoo had put the glorum notifications in there, among dozens of spam. So I get online to read the reply. Interesting. RSS might make things readable,
