Advice needed about weblog software
9:01 am Mon, 19th June 2006Hey guys! Just wanted to gather some information from you bloggers out there. My current web hosting expires soon, and as it is quite an expensive package, I’m thinking of changing to Kwai’s server which has unlimited space, and is cheaper! However I’m stuck on what weblog software to install? I think I have this old version of movable type somewhere still, but maybe I should upgrade. Does anyone know what blogging software is good these days – I’m looking for something free and something you can install and run on your own server (linux based) and have full control over. I’ve heard about TypePad, but that costs money. Is the latest free version of MovableType any good – it seems be restricted to only support 1 user now. Anybody know about any other weblog publishing software?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hehe yeh right after I posted this, I went to investigate some other blogs and first one I came across was using wordpress (LuckyKat) and I thought “OH yeh! Forgot about this one!” 🙂
Its very easy to install.. really does take only about 5 mins. I just have to customise it now to my design.. and import entries etc etc..

everyone’s raving about wordpress at the moment! i made the switch recently and although i haven’t had much of a chance to play with it layout wise, the admin stuff’s really easy to use 🙂
