So the race is on to see who can do it in the most interesting fashion!
A great challenge...

People could post text, some rich text format or text/html

Please, application/html (at least, I *hope* it's registered that way).
But any MIME type should be eligible, just as it is in mail and news.
This would spur the development of decent indexing technology both for
structured or rich text ("show me all anchors that HREF my document"?)
and for images or movies!
