[gobolinux-users] Awesome redesign of the site

[Rayne Van-Dunem]

I could. A Blogspot is easy and free to set up (although, if you want to
have it on Gobolinux's servers, there's always Wordpress).

I lurk around the mailing lists (which is why this is my first post), so I
could probably rundown many of the week's events, although it would help to
have someone else compile any missing bits of info.

I'm thinking "GoboBlog" @ gobolinux.blogspot.com or something like that.
What do you think?
