    "Ugh. S'Qute is uglier than Beta."

    True. But my beef with Beta is not the esthetics, it's the loss of functionality.

    The impressive thing about s'qute is that it builds a slashdot-like interface with moderation etc... on top of Usenet. If one day Slashdot or SoylentNews folds, all old comments are gone. If s'qute or Google Groups go down, all comments are still available through Usenet's distributed database.
