  I would like to create an environment for my blog whereby anybody can author/post/publish – can this be facilitated?

  joel,

  You can add contributors to your blog on the Users tab of your dashboard. A genuine free-for-all blog would immediately be flooded with spam, so we don’t provide a way to do that.

  Thank you. However, I am looking for the most efficient way to add lots and lots of contributors with little administrative overhead…any suggestions?

  No. You can add users one at a time on the Users tab, or invite them on the Invite tab. We don’t provide a bulk add method because it would be abused by spammers.

  You could use a wiki instead. Try wikispaces or mediawiki. But yes, it’ll be spammed.
