Can blogging replace forums and mailing lists?

Experience seems to show that weblogs are proving far more effective in creating meaningful interpersonal connections than centralized community spaces on the web. Can networks of bloggers be seen as the future of online communities?” [Knowledge Board thanks to Column Two]
