Sometimes I think mailing lists are the future aswell as the past. Something very elegant about them, moreso than something like google reader. The suckless-tools mailing list (http://suckless.org/community) is a great example.

I think the real value is in the curation, which is something you don't get from google reader.
Essentially, if a list is curated well enough, you know you will be able to find things of value on there and I know for me, not having to rummage through my rss feeder has a lot of value.
Its the same reason why I read hacker news, better curation then my rss reader.
