    Hi,

    Ok ... i want to set up a site like 'blogger.com' that will contain blogs of my members.
    I have approx 600 staff members and 100+ have shown a interest in opening there own blog but have no idea how or what to do.
    My idea is to open my own site and allow it to hosts all of my staff members blogs ...
    How do i do this?
    What software can i use?

    The most important thing i see is that i must be able to let google and the other bots know when they have been updated ? how do i do this?

    I really want to take a 'off the shelf' product that will allow me to build blogs for my staff and then let them run them but at the same time do all of the 'pinging' and other bits to make the blogs a worth while project for everyone.

    If its not available then i would need to set up a blogger account for every member of staff and set the blog ...

    Help..................

    I would like to do this also as an extension of one of my sites.

    Anyone give both of us a direction to look for this software?

    Thank you.

    I think an office wiki would work much better than a blog. Wikis are the next hot item.
