I'm a heavy blogspot user, but would have probably chosen Wordpress if I had to do it all over again.
Joomla might be a good one as well, haven't checked it out. Alex From: MarvinC [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, June 25, 2009 12:04 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: Blogging Yep! Joomla doesn't come with "built-in" blog functionality and to me works more like a CMS than a Blog. For instance, I'd consider MyItforum.com more of a CMS solution than a blogging solution. I say if all you want to do is write and tag articles then go with Wordpress for blogging. gl On Thu, Jun 25, 2009 at 11:55 AM, Micheal Espinola Jr <[email protected]> wrote: Joomla is an interesting platform. Horrible on security/access related issues though, in terms of functionality that is built-in to other portals.
