Well per my post on the 18th I have gotten wordpress mu up and running on my forum server.  Currently the urls used to access that system are;

• http://blog.fanfilmsforum.com
• http://blogs.fanfilmsforum.com
• http://blog.amateurfilmsforum.com
• http://blogs.amateurfilmsforum.com
• http://filmsblog.org
• http://filmsblog.net

Only the first one works 100% correctly right now.  My virtual hosts file and dns aren’t quite syncing up correctly — should be fixed eventually.

By that, you should take this as a very serious effort on my part.  I want this to be a success.  The next thing I must do is figure out how to correctly style the MU entry page such that it’s a self explainitory advertisement of what it does, and such that it incorporates content from the various other blogs.

As many of you know I am the owner of the Amateur and Fan Films forum over at fanfilmsforum.com. I am always keen on making new things happen for people and have always wanted that community to do well. While I will admit my aspirations to make films has some what died down, I still very much enjoy talking about films and media in general and interacting with the folks on the forum.

Over the years I have started and stopped several projects for the forum. Most of them looked good on paper, or even half way through production but just didn’t pan out for one reason or another. The latest attempt was at making a film repository and voting system that was similar to IMDB but specifically for amateur/fan films. As of right now that project is on hold – likely forever.
