WordPress or Joomla

Word Press is dedicated for a blog. quite easy
many themes, extension you can get on web.

While with Joomla you can create any kind of website customizing it.
You can use ready made templates or create your own one.

Both of these are coded in PHP & use MySQL as backend. works like a charm.

ive been messing around with a test install of wordpress and it seems pretty good so far. i think ill use it... thanx man.

But if you want something extreme, more fuctionality than WordPress dont forget to try Joomla, however configuring it is quite tricky.

no, i just need simple and straight to the point. functionality isn't on my must have list.

If you like Joomla, try Drupal as well.
It is used by many professional sites and has tons of free themes and extensions.
