That's not interesting at all.

I disagree with that entirely. Say I took a batch of MP3s, an album I was working on, and stuffed them in a directory, then sent that link to five friends asking them to check them out. Would I expect those files to be "public", just because they were on the internet? If I didn't tell anyone else, why would I need to password protect the directory? And doing a "blog by email" isn't the same thing. That's pretty much requiring people to read your writing and look at your pictures, rather than simply giving them the option. Private blog = Friends-only LiveJournal. I can't see much of a difference here, save that there isn't any obvious way (that I'm aware of, though I'm an MT user) to password protect a Blogger blog. We can't assume he intended to eventually make the thing public. It became "public" for reasons that weren't intentional, even if (I assume) he knew about them. The internet is public. You password-protect something on the internet for the same reason you have a PIN number on your debit card.

Thats bullshit. If that was true, he would just send emails, rather than put it on the web. For honda, before he modified his post.

I do know how to.

DOES IT HAVE SWEET RIMS AND SOOPED-UP EXHAUST??!?

I'd have to assume Matt Good would be deciding who has access and who doesn't. On a website, you can set up specific directories to be password protected. If only a dozen or so people are going to have access to something, then this is a good way to go. Everyone can have their own account, and if they share their account with someone who abuses the site, the individual account can easily be removed. If it's something that more people are going to have access to, then the best idea would be message board format, but have some sort of sysop or mod validation, rather than just email verification.

The most secure thing he could do is provide those people invited to see his blog with unique usernames and passwords. Any account that abuses the blog could easily be removed. Not sure how feasable this would be though.

Can someone who's 17 legally even own a car?

Password protecting it or making the URL have some random characters. Either would be just as effective.
