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.
