Add posts to any blog as a SuperAdmin from the backend. You only need one install of a plugin that can be used over multiple sites, each with their own domain.
WP & WPMU (multi user) were merged in 3.01
Search for "Istvan Horvath" on WF. He has is a free report for download.
The power behind WP is simply incredible!

If this can help (I've done it and it works fine) :

1-You install WP 3.0.1

2 - You enable the multiblog Network option
To do this :
Open up wp-config.php and add this line above where it says /* That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */:

define('WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE', true);

3 - Create as many blogs as you want
4 - Activate WP Robot for each blog
Optional 5 - Modify the WP robot form file to have your default values in the form

Personally I'm going to write a script to do all these steps automatically...

Now Imagine you put your main Keyword in a form, you just click, and..
It creates 100 auto blogs using scrapped keywords from your main keyword to set your Subdomain name, blog Title, and content..
Gonna be fun heh.

Try making a video showing how to install one step by step, then hire 100 people to create from India to install 5 each for $1 per installation.

I own big farm of autoblogs and here is what I did:
- make master blog - one empty blog where you will install several themes, configure all plugins, add about page, contact us, terms...
- them backup it and restore to other servers each time you need new one

As I have several models of auto blogs with different set of plugins, I have several master files.

Then put this code in .php file:

<?php
$url = 'http://YOUR-SITE.net/aaa011.tar.gz';
$dir = './';


function downloadRemoteFile($url,$dir,$file_name = NULL){
    if($file_name == NULL){ $file_name = basename($url);}
    $url_stuff = parse_url($url);
    $port = isset($url_stuff['port']) ? $url_stuff['port'] : 80;

    $fp = fsockopen($url_stuff['host'], $port);
    if(!$fp){ return false;}

    $query  = 'GET ' . $url_stuff['path'] . " HTTP/1.0\n";
    $query .= 'Host: ' . $url_stuff['host'];
    $query .= "\n\n";

    fwrite($fp, $query);

    while ($tmp = fread($fp, 8192))   {
        $buffer .= $tmp;
    }

    preg_match('/Content-Length: ([0-9]+)/', $buffer, $parts);
    $file_binary = substr($buffer, - $parts[1]);
    if($file_name == NULL){
        $temp = explode(".",$url);
        $file_name = $temp[count($temp)-1];
    }
    $file_open = fopen($dir . "/" . $file_name,'w');
    if(!$file_open){ return false;}
    fwrite($file_open,$file_binary);
    fclose($file_open);
    return true;
} 

downloadRemoteFile($url,$dir);
exec("tar xvfz aaa011.tar.gz");


?>

aaa011.tar.gz is your master blog archive on main server.
This script download it to remote server (move files).
So, install this script on server where you want to move blog (install new one) and just run it.
Next is to set database....

Just first and last line.
In first you write where is your file located on remote server and name of file and in the last line only file name.

Well I'm not quite sure, but I think that somewhere I've readden that with WP3.0, when activating the multiblog option, you can set blogs even to other domains. Not quite sure but I think it is quite possible. (With all domains pointing to your hosting folder and with some Htaccess tweaks imo)

I have been working on this since last week.

Seems there are a few things you need to ask yourself.
1.How often do you want to update you WP distribution website?
2.Do you want to use automation to totally customize the website? Or just the install?
3.Do you want to install multiple blogs at the same time?

You will want to update, probably everyday (or so), so you will need to zip it up or copy directly from the website (that is what I do using Ubot and ftp-copy. Then use mysql(dump) to copy the database from the disribution to the new DB, agian in Ubot. Now that the new website is up and running it is time to customize the permalinks, setup the analytics, set the title & tag, install an article or two, All in one SEO, Onlywire, Keyword to post,Add the website to Kish Multi pro,ETC. (using Ubot).

This process, seems to be growing with every update. Something to think about when deciding to tie the installs together with MU or a shared directory.

IMHO
