i know this has been asked multiple times, but i'm asking it again... opinions may have changed
what's the best blogging software to use on your own personal site? i'm talking about blogging software you host yourself... none of that xanga and blogger.com bullshit |

wordpress crumbles when more than an eskimo and an ant happen to be browsing the same page at the same time. -------------------- WAIT. I'm not finished.

Wordpress or Textpattern... Definitely the best two out there. Wordpress can suck if you overload it with plugins and stuff of the like.

ok i tried both, wordpress is by far the easiest to work with
textpattern is more of a cms than blogging software and when you want a cms both dupal and joomla blow textpattern away wordpress is good for simple blogs, if you need something more fancy try drupal or joomla and don't even mention movabletype, what a joke |
