Honestly, the only real difference between USE(less)NET and messageboards is the ability to edit your posts, and more limited dissemination. I know I treat them essentially the same as when I was an a.t.t, r.g.m, and a.f.p regular. Then Netscape came along, and HTML "web pages" started getting fashionable, and next thing you know it's Blogspot, MySpace,, and Facebook where the kids are all wssting their time. Kids these days, with their graphics and their javcascript! When I was a lad, the internet was text only! 24kbps was a fast connection! And we liked it!
