One of the ways to foster a community around a set of writings is to set up a small special-purpose Wiki. There are dozens of Wiki engines and different implementations out there. Some of them include support for exotic and complex authentication setups. Others thrive precisely on the *lack* of user accounts and permissions. For a set of jottings that are mostly personal thoughts written with the express purpose of inviting commentary, or even editing, enriching and powerful contributions by others, I'd definitely go the way of a Wiki. It is one of the ways that works admirably well when inviting others to write in a collaborative, co-operative, and community-driven spirit. I personally like the OddMuse wiki engine. It's what I run as the main page of my laptop's http://localhost/ interface. There are many other Wiki engines out there though. Have a look at the Wikipedia page that lists Wiki implementations and pick one that you like.
