Yes I'll have a FAQ when the time is right. Keeping many details underwraps. I'll answer any questions in this thread that I am permitted to answer at this time.

DEVELOPMENT STATUS:
We've been "in stealth mode" developing our own software. We looked at many software options out there...free, paid, opensource, etc... nothing fit our business model and many were too restrictive (content, licensing, domains, etc) so we're building the feature-rich blog software from scratch. this will take time but I've got a skilled team working on it and we're making sure we do it right the first time.
We're targeting Summer 2005 for Launch.

re: mainstream vs adult
lots of email asking if you can have multiple blogs and the answer is yes, but if you are blogging under mainstream categories you must refrain from posting adult links/content, etc for obvious reasons. You can not link your mainstream blog to your adult blog but vice-versa is allowed.

re: moblogging
yes, we are working on incorporating moblogging (mobile blogging: text and pix from your mobile phones, pdas, devices) and vogging (video blogging), but honestly, the vogging is not as important to us as moblogging will be right now. But vogging is definitely in our strategy. see next question for more...

re: linking to my blog
If you have your own site, i.e. you're a model/cam girl and want your own blog and don't want to lose your traffic, you can iframe your blog. We will still link to your blog and make it searchable within our network and our surfers will not have access to your paid members areas. if you wish to keep your blog private and for you members only, that may be possible. Plus, you'll be able to update your blog with your mobile phone via SMS/Text message and if you have a PhoneCam you can upload your pix instantly or archived for you to add later when you get back home. I know it seems obvious but I received this question alot and it needed answering.

re: competing services / referring bloggers
yes there are many out there but always room for more because new bloggers are born everyday. In fact many services have launched on GFY recently and congrats to them for getting online. more services = more bloggers = wider audience = faster adoption rate. I'm not doing this to compete with anyone... I'm willing to work with everyone. I'm making use of my resources, domains, ideas, network, traffic, etc to create a service that hopefully will be adopted by many bloggers. If other services want to work with me, they are welcome to contact me and I will consider private-label/co-brand partnerships where every (team or regular) blogger you refer will be tiered under your affiliate code. If you're not happy with your current solution, then we'll try to accommodate you. That goes for everyone... if you refer other bloggers to join our team, make sure you let us know so we place them under your code so you earn a bonus on the revenue they generate.
.
THE BOTTOM LINE
If you are already blogging or thinking about blogging you can use any service you want out there AND/OR use ours at the same time... post once to all of us. If you already have your own blog at a free service or on your own domain, you can use our service to mirror your blog under one of our domains and share in the benefits we're offering. If you don't know how or why to blog, we'll educate you and open your eyes to the full potential of blogs. You can blog about almost any topic you want and have multiple blogs. If you want to blog about your own life, your favorite celebrity, food, tv show, video game, job, relationship, fetish, lifestyle, sexstyle, workstyle, etc then you'll be able to. We're launching a cohesive and comprehensive network of 300+ blog domains that will be sharing traffic and revenue with our pre-launch affiliate TEAM-BLOGGERS. Everyone is invited to join us. But after we launch we may be closing the doors and not "openly" bringing on more TEAM-BLOGGERS unless they are referred by a current team-blogger. After we launch, our service will have free and paid services for new bloggers but NO revenue/traffic sharing. If you just want to be an affiliate (because you don't feel like blogging) you can send traffic to our paid blog service and earn revenue-share.
If you're interested in learning more about our blog software to use for your own site, either co-brand or private-label, email me and I will consider it.

Subject: BLOGS
keep in mind, I get 100,000 emails per day to all my domains, though much is spam, I find gold in there sometimes, so I still go thru much of it. I receive at least 100+ emails per day from people buying/selling domains, gfy programs/sponsors etc. I am not ignoring anyone out there and will answer your questions. In fact, I'm considering hiring an assistant (or 2) to read my email. Anyone interested? LOL.
more Q&A coming soon. Thanks to EVERYONE that contacted us and of course thanks to GFY... truly a networking resource that many don't even try to tap into... I'll make sure to heavily promote Adult.com/RealityCash.com/etc within the blog network.
