Okay--so this thing is live!
So--got an email from Rad a few weeks ago. Went something like this--
"Hey, NightOwl, I've got this new open source version of *Movable Type*. Says I can have as many separate authors as I want. Don't know exactly how that works, but sure want to give it a try! Are you interested?"
I respond saying: "Sure, I can give it a try--I don't know anything about blogging or the software--is there a way I can play around with it and get used to its features first?
Rad says: "No problem--let me get the thing set up and I'll get back to ya!"
The next thing I see is Rad's announcement in his blog on 12.March.2008 about my new blog here that he has set up for me!!! See here: http://mt4.radified.com/2008/03/first-multi-blog-movable-type-open-source-mtos.html or here: http://radified.com/index2.html (By the way, Rad, nice picture of the owl and the full moon--we just had one on Friday!
And, he posted the blog in the Radified Community Forums as well -- http://radified.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1205263770
So much for *playing around with it* to get used to how it all works!!!
Shades of a couple years ago when I was visiting the Radified Community Forums on a Sunday afternoon, and when I logged on, my forum layout had suddenly changed--I now had added functiions at the top and bottom of my screen that I had never seen before!!! Now that was interesting--Rad must be changing the forum layout.
Later that day I get an email from Rad: " Hey, NightOwl--I've been playing the the forum software--I've made you a *Moderator*--do you want to be one?!"
"Ah,... sure Rad--why not!!!"
So, just a friendly warning about Rad--he's often one step ahead of me....
