If we ever do get a blog portal off the ground, it would be nice to divide it into two sections: private (like mine) and teams. For the portal, I think paid hosting wouldn't be unreasonable as long as the price wasn't extremely high. $5 a month seems to be relatively standard, but we probably need to charge just enough to cover expenses.

I had no idea that this thread would start a conversation like this...I like it, though.
