Believe it or not, I'm posting this message via NNTP in Thunderbird with
a neat tool that I found kicking around: nttp//rss. The tool wasn't
built to be a client side blog editor as much as it was built to act as
a client side blog aggregator. It allows you to specify RSS feeds and
parses them into NNTP feeds that can be read in any newsreader. I chose
Thunderbird, but Outlook Express and others work equally well.

Neat.
