WikiLogs Opens for Business

In the interests of WebSeitz:SpreadingWikiweblog's, BillSeitz has opened wikilogs.com for business. The service is based off of his own WikiLog called WebSeitz. He's using Zope and a customized ZWiki for his wiki platform, the big advantage of what he's doing over what I'm doing here is that pages named a certain way (eg. zYYYY-MM-DD-ArbitraryTextTag) are mixed in with the RecentChanges page to give a temporal representation of a wiki (see his WebSeitz:FrontPage).

I think the biggest problem he's going to have is that he's under estimated people's desire to have their web site "look nice". Personally I think the default page he's built is fairly ugly (even uglier then spack.org :-? ). Over all I applaud the effort though I'd like to see a WikiPhotoAlbum, WikiTrackBack and easy skinning built in as well.

Oooh, MIT's HayStack has downloadable source, yummy. Looks really interesting, but the hardware requirements are a bit painful.
