I didn't know where to post this so I'm putting this in both the design forum and the server side client side forum. I am working on a new project for a new client and i'm stuck. I have been designing for about a year now, and I have a lot of experience with HTML, CSS, Javascript, and alot of design software experience. I am however a newcomer to server side coding.

My problem is this. I want people who visit the site to be able to post something, and then that post go directly to the homepage where others can read it, rate it, and comment on it.

The best example of what I'm trying to do is like the texts from last night site where the point of the site is for the users to be able to interact with the posts from other users.

Any help would be appreciated, and thanks in advance!
