assumed: web space and database
:fp: I don’t think this should be assumed. I think you should explain that you need to get a webhost (show that page) and show how to create a database, taking the example of cPanel.
:df: That sounds good, but I don’t have access to cPanel (dreamhost has their own control panel). Anyone want to loan me some web space for this?

Discuss blog 1
:fp: note that there is no "Blog All" in version 2.0 any longer. in 2.0, blog 1 is Blog A.
:df: Should I do these videos with 2.0 and save them all up until its release? Or should I go ahead, but just leave off discussion of the Blog All?

:fp: One video I’d like to see is website integration. Take a static site and show how to integrate a news block into the home page (possibly a FAT home page ;). probably by copy/pasting code out of a_noskin.php .
