The UN is useful when taken into account its original purposes (to enfore the post WWII status quo, with the Allies on top - the hegemony of the Allies) and in this function (expressed in the SC) along with a forum for international meeting and diplomacy, with it NOT being anything like a governing body (the GA) - room for both public and private diplomacy (embodied in the GA and various other things).

However, the cold war undid the usefullness of the SC, and the rise of the Pan Islamic movement in the UN has undone the usefullness of the GA.
