Thank you for all the comments.
Thanks for the WP tip: I don't know much about wordpress (it looks
good), but I have tryed enough of open-source CMS to say that they
are based on messy solutions (one for all = joomla) + it won't be
free blog system, so I don't think using this free system would be
fair.
That's really not a problem. WP is released under the GPL (http://wordpress.org/about/gpl/
) which effectively means you can use it in any way your want, the
only limits are on changes you make to the code. If they didn't
want you to use it to build paid-for services that would be
restricted by the license, but it's not.
If you have a moral objection to using open source software to run
a paid-for service, be sure to avoid Apache, MySQL and Linux too!!
:-D good point
So, I will stick with separate databases for each user + central
databases used for searches etc.
If you still intend to go down the road of building it yourself I
strongly urge you to check out Sphinx (http://
www.sphinxsearch.com/) for searching. It kicks the crap out of any
other system I've come across.
I am pretty sure I am up for this wheel reinventing ;-)
Your funeral :)
The only thing I am not strong in is the MySQL, but with you guys
there is nothing impossible!
Seriously? You want to build a blogging system with support for 10k
users and your MySQL is not strong? Good luck.

Not sure I see the relevance of that link, but if you think praying
will help I'll repeat my "good luck".
:-)
I'm not saying you can't learn what's needed to get it done, but you
can save yourself a world of pain by making use of what's already out
there. I'm a big advocate of learning new things, but when you need to
get something done I see nothing wrong with standing on the shoulders
of giants.
