Blogs, Forums, Tagboards and Guestbooks

I spent most of this morning trying to configure and upload a guestbook script for this site, but it didn't work so I've given up and will be looking elsewhere. Why do we need a guestbook when we have a forum and a tagboard and this blog?? Well I wanted something which would allow people who were using the ict facilities in youth centres to be able to register comments about their use of those facilities without having to sign up to the forum; The tagboard offers too little space for comment and the discussion forum involves too much commitment for some people. Also neither the tagboard nor the forum structures comments by asking questions like what youth centre the user belongs to.

Blogs, forums etc are all intended to make this site and the nypo project more interactive.

Update

The new guestbook has been added.
