Dave, thank you for the Drupal pointer. I already use CivicSpace actually, and one of the things I am looking to do is set up a system whereby people can MMS (multimedia post) to a shared blog. I am sure its coming, but I haven't seen a module yet for integrating picturephones.
One thing I like about blogger is how easy it is to set up an MMS (mobile blog post) -- but what I am not so happy with is that its not so easy to just "give away" an email address to which anyone, or a registered user, can post to. Hope that helps clarify what I'm looking for. Weren't systems like this set up post katrina to help people find one another? Many thanks!
