Meanwhile the slow death of mailing lists has long bothered me.  You all 
probably know by now that Yahoogroups (which absorbed at least two older 
hosts of mailing lists) has shut down.  Why aren't list servers as 
common as personal websites?

My web host offers WordPress (which I use), MediaWiki (which I can 
imagine using), Drupal, Piwigo, Joomla, LimeSurvey, ownCloud, but not 
mailman or anything of the sort.

To break the power of Facebook and Twitter we need decentralized 
versions of them, and for those to work we need the protocols to be 
widely supported (which may be a chicken-egg problem).  We need it to be 
easy for millions of users to set up their own nodes.
