Jumping in but what about incorporting Ray's BlogCFC
(http://ray.camdenfamily.com/projects/blogcfc/) instead of a custom object?

Hi Michael,

Looking at your Blog Post definition, I think that the only field not
already in the dmNews type is PingURL. The Blog Link is also much like a
dmLink. It may well be worth extending or cloning some of the core custom
types to save some time - I've done that in the past, and found it a pretty
quick process.

It would allow authors to enter blog posts and have them display in standard
blog format via display rules. It would include a comment management
utility.

Fields are so numerous I've started to wonder if I should a) break it up
into distinct entries and comments custom types, or b) extend dmNews.
This is a larger project than I expected, hence my reluctance to actually
begin!

Before I 
        do this, I want to make sure no one else has done it.  Has
anyone? 

Whats it do exactly?
