I read blogs using gnus, the same thing I use for mailing
lists. I also read /. using gnus, to the differences are not as
distinct for me, really.
There is also software that converts mailing lists into web
pages, and some of these converters retain a MUA-like interface with
panes (gmane, fer instance); other take a days worth of emails and put
them into blg comment style pages, with nested/threaded/flat variants.
Therefore I am not so sure that the format differences are
insurmountable.
