 * i plan to build kind of a WEB 2.0 website, is it possible to let users submit
   their own posts and choose their own tags/categories etc, without giving them
   a “author” cappbility?
 * I don’t wont to let every one upload files etc, just
    to place a line at the 
   main page left side “submit a post”.
 * Thanks!
    Jack
