Postcards from the Imagination

I've seen quite a few poets complaining about the new blogger, and since I have some extra server space, I'd like to put it to good use. I've reserved the domain name poetryweb.org, and I'd happy to set you up with a FREE MovableType poetry blog on my server. Your blog would be hosted at pickyourname.poetryweb.org. If you'd like an additional email address, I can give you pickyourname@poetryweb.org.

To see an example in action, go to: http://postcards.poetryweb.org 

I can set up the subdomain, blog, and help you import your entries. After that, it's all you. I can't teach anyone how to use MT, or help edit templates, etc. (Time permitting, I may be able to answer a question or two, but you'd have to be willing to take I've never come across that before for an answer.) I also can't--due to technical limitations--grant you exclusive access to the folders in which your blog resides. You'll have to trust me not to mess around with your files on the back end.

Finally, I'd ask that you use a third-party server (e.g. Flicker, Photobucket, YouTube) to host pictures, videos, and other large files--unless you want to pay for extra disk space, in which case you can do whatever you please.

I can probably host 50+ blogs at this domain. If I'm feeling really ambitious, perhaps I'll create a directory and other fun stuff on the front page. To sign up, just send me an email at vmheatter[@]gmail.com.
