For example, if your software only lets you set up blogs as mu.nu/blogname and you really want it to appear at blogname.mu.nu, mod_rewrite will do that for you. You can stick it in an htaccess file, and it will still work (it does this by magic). It works even if blogname.mu.nu is on a different server to mu.nu/blogname. (And if you happen to have a cluster, this means you can effectively use the bandwidth of all of the servers.) You can redirect this but not that if that's what you need. You can even, with a little tweaking, automate the creation of the rulesets.

This may mean that I can use an existing CMS rather than having to write one myself. Further research is definitely indicated.
