I had left Yahoo's defaults in place, but went back and changed where I
could.  Most activities are only available to Members and Moderators as an
anti-spam measure.  Needing to join is not unlike subscribing to a list.
The only things that are possible to be shared publicly in Yahoo are
Messages, Bookmarks, and the Calendar.  Of those I really only see myself
using Messages (which should already be public) so I hadn't thought of the
other two.  They should be public now, but for myself I see little need for
either beyond a link to metacard.com and on to runrev.com in the Bookmarks
section.

I also set membership to require a Moderator's approval.  If you hate spam
you'll thank me for that one. :) Thus far the two people who've joined have
already been approved, and anyone who wants moderator status to approve new
members just drop me a note with your Yahoo ID and I'll set the permissions
for you.  Just please keep an eye out for bots to avoid spamming.
