How To Copy Less Wrong Design

For your purpose of making a Less Wrong like rationality blog in another language, I think a subreddit of Less Wrong would be appropriate. (Can text of structural elements be localized independently on subreddits?)

The code for Less Wrong is open source so you could use the exact same software as Less Wrong, and there are some instructions on how to get it running, however they might be hard to execute without programming knowledge. Also, getting that accessable on the internet requires having access to webserver, not just having a blog on another website.

That would be one way to get all the features of Less Wrong. Unfortunately, I can't think of any less technical ways off the top of my head.

I'm amazed by the coincidence. Just yesterday I was wondering how much it would cost to make a web thingy like Less Wrong -- to hire someone to write the code, to maintain the site and have the storage. Are those all the resources I'd need? I was thinking if someone here wanted to do it they could donate the money to SI or something. Whatever they want to do with the funds of course.

Maybe not a coincidence. It's a great idea and it's going to catch on for different applications..

I am in a group of parents who need something like this. We need something (like a blog) where anyone can post that is other hosted? What is the easiest way to get this done?

I don't have any experience with blogs. In the past, I ran a linux server with phpBB2. The people who will be doing this don't know much about computers.
