Like I said it has be a while (maybe 3 years ago) that I setup a test Sharepoint server. Blogging was not even available in the free version at the time. You could import Word documents though and I seem to remember linking to them. The paid version had many more features but I could not get the free one at the time and did not go further once the test was deemed a failure (despite many of the management people wanting it). There was a free download specific for running a Help Desk out of Sharepoint that looked real nice. Before you get the wrong idea the failure was based on 2 factors not really Sharepoint related. Factor one was that there was no pass through authentication for Mac's and factor 2 was we were not at that time on Exchange and had a split email system. I had to run an internal POP/SMTP server that the SharePoint could talk to, email going out to the world was handled by others and was on a SendMail server which during peak times could barely stay up. Internal email could not get out to the world.
