What if you are bui,lding up several blogs on different topics? Would it make sense that someone whose writing is up to snuff and with perhaps some other skills could support the same kind of effort? Even a more fully structured editorial team? That sounds great if you already have a lot of active commentors who could reasonably be expected to include some who might want to post.

At previous times we had a private members only blog/forum/wiki setup based on Drupal and Writeboard etc. Skype and internet messaging are very useful. The key is to not just be a group of people who all post on a blog because they have agreed to, a cohesive <b>team</b> who actually know, like and respect each other will have far more success. @Franklin @Toms comment above about emailing the whole team is a great start.

We've found that running a multiple-user blog basically needs one person to take charge of posting schedules, sub-editorial work and so on. We also have a system whereby an editor emails the whole team before starting work on a post. This helps us avoid working on similar topics and it allows the senior editor the chance to say no to a post before much work has been done on it. Good article.
