Stupid Idea

February 12th, 2004

Tomorrow night I’m going away for a week. Don’t concern yourself with where – the important point is that I won’t be here and I won’t have web access, so this blog won’t get updated, and I won’t be able to read it.

I have a crazy idea though to keep it updated and keep things interesting. It might also serve as some kind of poorly concieved publicity stunt for the blog.

I’ve created a guest login account on Movable Type. Before I go, I’ll post the login details and Movable Type access URL for this blog at the top of the page. The post will self-destruct in a clever way after twenty-four hours. Anyone who decides to use the login will be able to blog with complete anonymity.

Obviously this will be open to horrendous abuse, so I might chicken out at the last moment. Ideas of ways to police it for spam and abusive messages will be welcome.

So, is this a good idea, or is this a stupid, stupid idea?
