I like this idea.

With virtual hosts you can make this work really nicely, with urls like tilly.perlmonks.org...

    you could even do it with a single, catch-all virtual host, using mod_rewrite.

      this just happens to be covered in the mod_rewrite URL Rewriting Guide (slightly modified for the situation in question):

      RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond   %{HTTP_HOST}                 ^[^.]+\.perlmonks.org$
RewriteRule   ^(.+)                        %{HTTP_HOST}$1          [C]
RewriteRule   ^([^.]+)\.perlmonks.org(.*)  /home/monks/$1$2
