Anyone run XAMPP Web Server/Wordpress/forum like this on Pogoplug? (4 replies)

Sooner or later I've got to make a neighborhood website, where neighbors can use their wireless connection to read Wordpress stuff or an actual UBB forum. So this wouldn't have streaming music or be a DLNA site, just neighborhood messaging.
I know this post is already sounding like terrain we covered before, but naw, it's more about learning the lessons of earlier endeavers.
For instance, we're fairly in agreeance the 128 MB RAM of the two black Pogos and Mobile may not be comfortably suitable for Open Media Vault type stuff. Those we can spend $20-ish and get a quadcore with 1G RAM and go to town.

So say a Pogoplug Mobile with Debian, any new ideas what would really excel comfortably within those specifications?

There's only one idea I'd like to pitch. Firefox has a feature where you can have your bookmarks update automatically. This is insane how cool it works. But it's sending it all out to the man and besides, why not two or more browsers support? Like Firefox, which is my favorite LAN browser, make a localhost sync and another for Iron/Chrome, which is for basic web and research. Seems in order to do that you'd need a button or launcher and a way to copy and retrieve bookmarks from the Pogoplug.

You probably have a P4 Mobile doing wondrous things, so SPILL THE BEANS!
