	[quote name="Hokie Mokie, the King of Jazz"][quote name="Lufteufel"]Running a weblog with articles, forums, and user registrations takes a hell of a lot more technology than a few HTML <form> tags. [/quote] Here's a free jargon lesson on that whole Web Logging craze the kids are so into these days, just in case you ever start dating a 19 year old -- weblogs don't have "articles" or "forums." I know that your "Everything I Need to Know About Community I Learned on Usenet" approach means that taking a look at anything that's happened since 1993 probably seems beneath you, but the early weblogs were simpler than Geocities, both on the surface (a simple HTML form, despite your unsupported assertion that more was required) with flat files under the hood. The head shift was from static to time-ordered content -- the technology was the same. And the head took a surprisingly long time to shift. ;hm[/quote]
