WordPress MU

I have been working for a while to get this wpmu site up and running to my / the company's specifications. It's niche, is technology or "IT" related blogs and it is based out of Canada.

http://blogs.itworldcanada.com

Is finally up and running and is now featuring real content. Currently we are in phase 1 where all the writing and blogs are created in house so that we can control what goes into the blogs and work out any kinks / write good documentation for when we open it up to outside bloggers.

When we do launch phase 2 we will be straying a little bit from the basic wpmu setup in that not just anyone can get thier own blog. Why? simply because we want to keep bloggers writing about similar topics in one blog so that instead of 10 blogs about security we could have 10 bloggers on one security blog with a lot of post and multiple catergories to make the whole site more navigable and information more accesable to users.

Had some fun with modifications and plugins with this project.

Thanks to all the developers and all the forum users who helped me along the way. (even Dr. Mike although his comments are usually mean they are always right)...

Thanks for the insult. Please remember that we're all volunteers here, none of us are paid for any of this and, considering the level of the software, we shouldn't have to be handholding folks.

If you have an issue with the forum, please feel free to step up and help out instead of complaining.

edit: I'm glad though you got your site up and running.

That would be a great cut and paste response.

Nah, that would just give the developers more folks to show such a lack of respect that they do towards.

"Why Doc, whatever do you mean?"

OK, so that was "Doc" talking to "Ike", but it works. :D

The Dr. Mike comment was actually meant as a compliment. His posts usually have a "harsh" tone to them but he has a lot of knowledge and helps people find solutions. Thats all I was trying to say.
