I dunno..... I think it's maybe like a combination of reading Sing Out, Funny Times, a folksong society newsletter, a church bulletin, with notices of sick and shut-ins, deaths, etc; writing letters to the editor and Dear Abby that always get printed, and getting answers immediatly; listening to your favorite stand-up comic's newest routine; getting together with your favorite musicians, and the world's best audience, for an open circle in the friendliest bar in the world; answering a survey in a magazine, and seeing results immediatly; getting your librarian to look up stuff for you; getting tech support from the warmest, kindest techies you've ever heard of; and listening to your favorite and most informative folk radio show, only it's playing all requests, and it's on all the time; all rolled into one!!!
