    I've been recommended Nabble in the past.

    From my earlier post: It is very simple to embed a Blogger Blog, ( not WordPress page) just create a placeholder and enter this HTML code:
    <div align="left"><iframe src=http://thisdomainname.blogspot.com/ width="950" height="610"></iframe></div>
    Obviously swap out the name of the blog, change the width and height until you see it fits OK and you are done.
    Someone will tell you that Xara resizes to the placeholder, but I experiment with manual page sizes until it fits inside the webpage, which means the visitor to the site does not leave the website, yet the Blogger can edit as normal, (in Blogger.com) and have the changes reflect immediately in the webpage. See here for my example: http://sandysbythesea.com/blog.htm

    I agree with JimTotal regarding Nabble. It's by far the easiest to setup the mechanics of it. They also have other applications, equally simple -- and one of very few to combine a forum and a group mailing list.

    The Marketing Dude suggests that we should all be familiar with apps like forums, live chat and others ... anything that can be used as online customer service.

    What about security on Nabble? We were running on a forum (Simple Machines) and a client hacked in. This customer is running a social service with very sensitive information running between members. Need a password protected or by invitation only blog. I am interested in Nabble if it is secure and easy. This customer had some trouble with Blogger a few years ago and going that direction is a disagreeable reception.

    Is there any reason the same process will not work with a Wordpress.com (hosted my Wordpress) blog?
