This would be a nice way of doing it, but it would require a lot more  
work than that. When creating a BuddyPress account, you are actually  
creating a blog regardless of your choice, but it's used as a home  
base. The signup would have to be changed to you could create two  
blogs at the same time.

Perhaps in a future version this can be done, but at the moment this  
should work for most people.

Cheers
Andy
