My head is starting to spin with all this info... Could someone who's
experienced with all or most of these be really nice and post a summary
(starting a new thread) where things are listed in an advantages/disadvantes
format?
News vs. IRC vs. talkers vs. MUD/MUSH vs. (more if any)
RFC standards and software compliance? (platforms, OSs, etc.)
Depth of discussions? (single line vs. threaded vs. other)
Multiple rooms/areas?
Text or Graphical?
Load on server?
Packets across net?
