Yes, Social gets a lot of attention, but email lists are still the
best vehicle.
I use Eudora for email and their list and moderator are the example
of how a list can:
1. Be run with a great moderator (I call her the Queen of Eudora)
2..act as a source of knowledge as people are reporting new actions
all the time (I have been using Eudora for 20 years and still learn
from the list)
3. Problem solving. If someone on the list can not respond to a
problem, then it is almost time to give up
Actually, not give up but re describe the problem. (99% success rate)
4. Eudora list is "email" and Eudora email is txt, makes searching simple.
wish there was a similar list for recovery/backup!

That was my thought as well. There seems to be a general trend toward other
social media outlets for a lot of things instead of mailing lists.
Maybe NBU is just so easy now, nobody needs to ask any questions about it
anymore? ;-)
