Gang,
I've had a few people comment recently that Anchorbutt seems to be very active, and it looks like it's going to stick around. In light of this new, optimistic outlook, I figured it might be time to think about Anchorbutt 2.0. Here are the thoughts I have had, in order from least work to the most.
1. Leave it alone. It's not worth any effort.
2. Register the domain name anchorbutt.com and have blogger publish the blog to that web site. Everything will remain as it is now, except that you'd load www.anchorbutt.com to view the blog. (Still update it from blogger.com.).
3. Foresake anchorbutt and start a new blogger blog with a less embarassing name.
4. Combination of 2 and 3: register a name besides anchorbutt.com to publish the blog to.
5. Register some domain name and throw out blogger altogether. Install some content management system and become uber-cool.
To help decide what to do, I've created a poll! Everyone loves polls, right? But also post comments with other suggestions, alternate names, content managements systems we could use, and whatever else you think of.
Speak up people!
(Follow the link for the poll. Blogger won't let me include it here because it uses javascript.)

What could we do with a content management system (such as Textpattern) that we both
* can't do now, and
* wish we could?
We definitely need anchorbutt.com, that much is for sure.
Well, all we can do now is blog. A phat CMS would let us do more stuff:
* wiki-like stuff
* message boards
* etc.
As to whether we wish we could or not, well, that's up for discussion. Sometimes it is fruitful to roll out capabilities and see if they get used, rather than to think up things to do and then seek tools to enable those things.
Other times not.
So it's decided.

What's decided?
i say just leave it as a blog. simple is cool
BUT!!!
We need to redo the design. And how about a logo submission contest? then pick and use the best one.
For sure I agree we need to redo the design!!!
Make a new anchorbutt dsesign. Difficulty: no anchors.
ijofum
why no anchors?
I'd like to see a better RSS feed, such that the links would actually show up in the article. Otherwise, I'm happy with it as is.
Oh yeah, and being off blogger would mean that we wouldn't have to worry about comment spam so much. For a little while.
