Cool Site - Epic Words

Has anyone seen this site before - http://www.epicwords.com/?
I just found it but it looks very interesting. It looks like it could be used for PBP games but includes a lot of extras with the blogs, wikis, etc. They don't have the BFRPG system in their list yet but I emailed them to see if they could add it. I'm going to give it a try with the game I just started with my kids and see how it works.

I already received a reply and they have added BFRPG to their list. I'm impressed.

I've been using Obsidian Portal for mine.. what does this one have?

NVM: I signed up and I like the layout alot. My only wish was it had the campaign map with the ability to link towns and sites to a Wiki like Obsidian Portal does. If your going to link to images you are going to need a second site to store them unless you want to pay for the premium package.

Yeah, that was one thing I noticed too was the lack of maps.
Have you used yours a lot? As a newbie it looks really cool to me but there's probably a lot that I'm not even thinking about or overlooking. Are there any tips or direction you could give me regarding how to use it to its best advantage?

Blaze.. well I love Obsidian Portal and run my campaign from it. I like it because of the maps and the characters section. I put the characters info in there as well as any major NPC they may have dealings with. Its very simple to use and it uses something called TEXTILE for alot of the mark up as well as standard HTML. Textile is really easy, if you want something bold you would do this *This is bold*. stuff like that..
