Have you guys considered using Planet as a Chemistry blogspace aggregator? It's pretty easy to setup and scales well. Ubuntu[1], GNOME[2], and Debian[3] are some common examples that I know of. Maintenance is always a difficulty with these things but in Ubuntu for example, we have a VCS branch that has the configuration and any Ubuntu Member can push changes to that branch, which Planet automatically pulls from every 10min or so. The downside I guess is that it's not very fancy or social, it just aggregates people's posts and provides a "skin" on them. -Jordan [0] http://www.planetplanet.org/ [1] http://planet.ubuntu.com [2] http://planet.gnome.org/ [3] http://planet.debian.org/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ThinkGeek and WIRED's GeekDad team up for the Ultimate GeekDad Father's Day Giveaway.
