Show In a Box
Have you seen Show In a Box?. It’s an interesting idea: take a fully packaged WordPress blog with custom themes and all kinds of other stuff already baked in, and you’ve got yourself your own host-able videoblog in a box. This is really interesting, and they have a full page of examples you can check out, should you want to give that a go.
Thanks to Jay Dedman for pointing this out. Pretty neat stuff.

Yeah I love Show In A Box. Working on a new theme for it now for my site. Should be launched in a few days. Can’t wait.
i started my site with a free css theme and now am overhauling it. Jeez, i’m a writer not a code person but I love the melding of tech and who the community or different communities now really looks out for one another.
I guess this is our generation just focused more online and using our online tools to spread offlinee too.
* I loved your idea of starting projects offline. Most of my clients are still just getting going online anyway.

Thanks for the heads up about Showinabox. I checked out their site and the next day I came across lumiere videos - the combination have allowed me to tap into my “artistic” side and now I have created two lumieres (with two more in the wings) and I am showcasing them using showinabox.
I hope you will check them out at http://lumiere.videozine.ca

right now RWG doesn’t use all of the features of the newest version, but this grass roots group has done an amazing job creating this.
