I thought of this idea while taking a shower this morning: custom hosted blogs for valued GC members. You provide the posts, we take care of the rest. It will be networked with GC, and connected with your member profile. Plus, you can make money by showing your own AdSense ads on your blog. I'll have to work out the details later, but it sounded really cool when I thought about it. They're like profile pages, but much more extended and continuously updating. Your blog can show your recent posts at GC, too. What do you think? Who wants to be first?

| I'll be first...! I think it is a great idea. It is kind of odd that you thought of that during the shower though. Count me in. |

Actually I don't think it's surprising that ideas do pop out all of a sudden during showers. 
Looks pretty interesting. Can I look first and buy it later?

Sure, as long as you can resist the temptation to shout "eureka!", and run naked through the streets.
I'll also be having a look at this, to see how it shapes up. It'll be interesting to see how it works, in practice.

Sounds like a good idea. I'll watch this closely before I do anything.

Sounds like a great idea intelliot. Although, you may not want to share everything you think of while you're bathing. Just food for thought.

I found a neat phpBB add-on:
http://www.outshine.com/phpbbblog/
It looks like just what we need, except that it doesn't mod_rewrite URLs as far as I can tell. That's something I'd really want to add in myself. Also, which of these URLs would be best?
googlecommunity.com/username
blogs.googlecommunity.com/username
gsearchblog.com/username

googlecommunity.com/username appeals to me. Easier for people to remember.

Nothing yet, but the vBulletin transition is going to take priority over this.
