Movable Type for Forums
Looking for more creative ways to extend Movable Type's templates? Try using Movable Type for running a web forum. Mark Carey created a series of templates for Movable Type which let your weblog mimic the familiar look of web bulletin boards.
In combination with Movable Type's built-in support for TypeKey or a third-party login such as Tim Appnel's TinyOrwell, it's easy to use your existing blog expertise to run an entirely different style of web forum. And of course, the same tools for managing comments, TrackBacks, and templates are available, so you can use them in combination with Movable Type plugins to create a whole new set of features for forum visitors.
