To help people better know what they're getting into when they follow me, I created a "Nutrition Facts" chart for my Twitter background image: http://blog.plasticmind.com/freebies/twitter-nu...

Watched this live on UStream. Totally rad.

Hm, that's odd. WP has gotten quite a bit more flak for security issues than MT has. In fact, from 2005 - 2008, the Department of Homeland Security has listed 120 security vulnerabilities for WordPress to Movable Type's 10. (http://www.movabletype.com/blog/2008/06/movable...)

If you ever decide to get MT going again, you should hook up to the ProNet mailing list or hop into #movabletype on IRC. Lots of healthy discussion going on in those venues between people who could help you get things working for yourself.

Which hosts aren't allowing MT? I've heard of previous versions of 4.x getting throttled, but I haven't heard of a ban on MT yet.

Wine Library is proof positive that consistent, quality content (with a heckalotta charisma) goes a long way. It's almost like with so many things shifting towards the 'net, financial capital isn't nearly as important as creative capital. Everyone is looking for creative, unique content.

Interestingly enough, I've had this discussion with customers who got big someplace like Daily Motion but wants to take more control of their brand by creating http://theirown.com. They didn't want to risk losing their DM audience, but they also wanted to start moving them over to their site. So they actually started offering additional specialized content on their own site and talking about it on their standard video feeds. Once the numbers at remote sites started to shift over to the new site, they could slowly turn off the remote sources and just focus on their personal site.

One of the key things to consider, though, is how well they market. People with charisma like @garyvee have no problem getting people excited about their content, but sometimes people with truly stellar content have a rough time "getting discovered". I firmly believe that ideally, the branding should happen at your own personal site. But realistically, some people need the exposure.

Just curious... why do you use a screen shot from MT3 when you're talking about MT4. The new wizard is really nice...

Glenn, great job last night! I listened to the rest of the show and once I shut up, you proved you've got a world of knowledge beyond me. I hereby dub you my replacement. <grin/>
