I've been thinking a lot lately about the downturn in user group meeting
attendance and mailing list participation over the last few years. Today I
graphed Plug's mailing list activity from 2005 to present (messages per month),
and noticed a startling coincidence.
Is this causal or merely correlated? Did other groups see a similar downturn in
mailing list usage?

StackOverflow started its public beta.
