Hi folks, I am using wordpress to power our blogs ... I'm almost done with the initial integration of it onto our site.

- Anyone can create a blog.

- Total privacy / admin control over your own blog.

- total commenting control

- Custom CD URL (ie. nadir.thecrackden.com, bebe.thecrackden.com, pinetta.thecrackden.com, etc.)

- Custom Layouts (I will have a ton up there for you to choose from ... there are options to personalize them too)

- Widgets/Plug-in support (import Flickr pics, etc.)

- Attachments for images

- Import your content if you have a blog elsewhere! (another wordpress, blogger, livejournal, RSS feeds, etc.)

The ultimate goal is to get the user database between the forum and the blogs to sync up so you don't need to sign up twice, but that's a whiles away for now.

Your posts don't have to be all IC either ... can totally create categories and organize your entries as such. ("IC" , "OOC", etc.)

So ... if you'd like to try it out, just let me know here in a reply and I'll create an account and send you info by weekend!
