And try more than one hosting platform to test out features.

Why isn’t anyone editing the wiki pages?) These aren’t trivial questions – people take the time to create a blog post or add content to a wiki because of the promise of emergent collaboration. Post your blog entry, wiki content, forum thread, etc. at least once a week. Cross-promote. Give people an action.
