Not that Im an expert but what about a wordpress site?
I think you can get free templates (not sure about hosting - perhaps someone can help there) and then you can keep like a diary/blog and then tag articles. This way you dont have to work to a deadline and you can just write articles when you get some good new content. You could also let people respond to the articles and vote without having to use BB-mail.
Perhaps someone with more experience can assist with the technical side and then leave it for you to maintain?

I tried downloading it, and like, it didn't work. Besides this isn't my computer I've already downloaded too much stuff.

????

If you havent got the time then rather than expect other people to do the work GM-JudgeNik has kindly set up a blog and allowed anyone to contribute including yourself. He & Number Twenty Three are also going to publish a BB magazine too. I can't help feeling now you are duplicating work for the sake of it. You have 2 perfectly good formats which are an improvement on your set up and you have been welcomed to be as involved as you wish to on both.

You asked me if you could copy the latest interview and I have no problem with this but I gotta ask you now how you think your project is going to take off? If you are going to spurn the chance to work with others and aren't going to compile any of the data yourself why would others want to assist you?!

I apologize, I know it was a crappy move to turn down Judge Nik`s blog. It`s just I want my newspaper to have all the stuff that my current magazine has, you know ask Stogey, inside the numbers. I don`t really want my newspaper in the form of a blog it doesn`t really fit my needs. May i ask politely what you mean by
I can't help feeling now you are duplicating work for the sake of it.
Do you mean that you kind of think that I am copying the work just so I can call it my own and get some credit? That`s not what I`m trying to do. And I`m not going to `spurn` the chance to work with others because this is what I have asked of the viewers in the previous post is exactly what I want. I wasn`t quite sure what Nik was going to create for me when he offered and that`s my bad. I hope this answers all of your concerns.

By the way, you spammers are not fooling me.
