Let me just outline how I currently participate (here and elsewhere).

I follow the mailing lists and glance through the postings, reading a
few interesting posts, but can (I try to convince my self :-) follow
status, any major issues etc. I can do this for 30+ communities in
<30min using the same email program (if there are no large topics etc).

If the only interface is web based, I will not read it on a daily
basis, it's just too slow. I will only go there if I had a problem. This
in turns mean I will not answer any posts that I knew the answer to,
never figure out clever ways to do things etc. because I would never see
it unless I actively googled it.

Juts my 2c....
