There is a nice little cleavage between ET-as-Blog and ET-as-Information Base. The latter is essentially 'static' and Write-Once. From an IB design POV the internal interconnections 'twixt and 'tween can be easily handled with the standard GUI keeping the long term storage costs to a minimum.
(Pointers are Your Friend.) She believed in nothing; only her skepticism kept her from being an atheist. -- Jean-Paul Sartre
There should be a single site with shared logins, because asking people to maintain separate accounts and log on to the separate sites would totally defeat the purpose. Also, the community lives on the community blog in our case.
Ideally, the "static" content would be another "section" of the ET site.
It is already possible to organise the same information in more than one way. For instance, look at
http://www.eurotrib.com/section/Diary
and
http://www.eurotrib-com/user/Migeru/Diary
As I said before, we don't need a more complicated database except possibly for revision history and multiple authorship of content. The way the database is displayed is up to our imagination (as illustrated by the "general" vs. "personal" diary views above).

I keep repressing that fact. She believed in nothing; only her skepticism kept her from being an atheist. -- Jean-Paul Sartre
