Web Doc makes it easy to create a new post full of multiple media formats. Web Doc provides templates for changing the visual background of each post, widgets for all kinds of purposes (calendar, games, etc), and of course lots of options for video and image display.
What makes Web Doc unique is that people who visit your Web Doc can reply with Web Docs of their own.
