This is by far the best blogging software I’ve tried. Tons of plugins and a brand new - very clean admin.

If your looking for a blog this is the way to go. There are TONS of themes and plugins available online and through the wordpress website.
Some of the other blog software programs I’ve tried include Typepad, Movable Type, Live Journal and Joomla.
Wordpress blows them all out of the water!!

It rocks. I tried a number of the other packages and finally settled on WordPress. That was three years ago and it just keeps getting better and better.

Wordpress is my first choice for generating not only weblogs but also cms systems. It comes with a huge range of plugins and widgets, nearly for all problems there is a solution, either searching a vast community or the well written documentation.
One great plus is the ability to modify nearly everything without the change of any core-script. It´s oop structure is so well organized that even people without a strong programming background are able to solve very specified problems by thereself.
