WordPress, looking good.
I had a look on the latest WordPress release and I have to say that it's looking really good. I dare say even better than MovableType already. The management console, the weblog posting tool and even the stock standard template are nicer and easier to use than MT. One thing I notice, now you can create articles/pages within WordPress, this blog server is becoming more and more of a CMS than just a traditional blogs.
My hosting provider give me a free WordPress hosting, that shows how popular it has become. I'm really tempted to use that instead of MT, but I'm a control freak and I need to have 100% control of this stuff so unless I manage my own install that's out of the question. This is where I got stuck again, WordPress requires a database or some sort, ack .. and Hostway don't give me free DB, I gotta pay for it :( Ah well ... back to MT I suppose, this is where MT got it right, you don't need a full blown relational DB to use it, instead you can use Berkeley DB which is available in almost all Linux installation.
