I'm currently administering a small network of about 8 WordPresses. I'm thinking of moving over to MU from individual installations because it'd save time with upgrades, etc. Before I do so, I need to have some questions answered. I have searched this forum, as well as the Internet in general, and haven't found any specific answers to these questions.
1.) Can one installation of MU handle different domains and subdomains?
2.) Can sitewide tags be implemented across all sites in an MU installation, even if those sites use different domains? I'm really interested in this feature, as I'd like to have "universal tags" that work across the entire network of sites (not just the subdomain sites, all of them).
3.) I'm considering moving from my current web host to wpwebhost.com and that company states that it'll install WPMU for no additional charge. Beyond that, how difficult is it to get things up and running? I know that's a difficult question, and the answer depends mostly on my skill level. I'm not a total n00b with this stuff, but I'm far from a professional, too.
Any help that could be provided here would be appreciated.
