Excellent - thanks for this info! I've spent the last half hour trying to figure out how to redirect from the root and failed miserably - this works great

That's the easy part, Elliott.

I mean, incorporating an RSS feed from another blog into a header-style section like your "Today's Links"

I'll look around some more, I think. I've written an RSS parser in PHP for Audioscrobbler and somewhat integrated it into Wordpress, I could probably roll my own plugin if I had to.

Hey JWK--Wordpress publishes an RSS feed to http:// your-wordpress-site . com / wordpress-directory / feed / which you can use to syndicate the site. Most themes and templates also have an RSS link somewhere...

Speaking of syndication, I haven't been able to find any good way to syndicate sites using WordPress. Any ideas?

Check out the default .htaccess rules that ship with wordpress. Modifying one could solve your problem, assuming the WP and bblog post_ids were the same:

RewriteRule ^item/([0-9]+)?/?$ /wp/index.php?p=$1

I've verified that this works--hope it helps.

Hmm, i used bblog too and i installed into my htdocs root.
And i used the clean-url .htaccess of bblog. So the url looks like http://www.netzwech.de/item/42
How can i rewrite it to my wordpress installation? Your example doesnt work :-(
Any hints?
