Blogging is still Wordpress's greatest strength, but they have done a
great job at making it a full fledge CMS or any type of website. Not to
mention the vast amount of well supported plugins that are searchable and
installable right from wordpress itself (no need to scour the web for
hours). Glad I could help.

Thanks, Bryce. I was under the impression that Wordpress was targeted more

for blogging vs. corporate websites, but I will check it out. The number
of open source CMS solutions available is enough to make one's head spin.
I've found www.cmsmatrix.org helpful for making comparisons. Still, I
think going with one of the more popular solutions (e.g., Joomla!,
Wordpress or Drupal) is the best way to go. TYPO3, for example, appears to

offer just about every feature in the base product or as an add-on, but
I'd be concerned about availability of documentation and information
online.

I've used both Joomla and Wordpress. I would go with Wordpress. Wordpress


is much easier for doing custom templates and I like their API way better.


I'm actually starting up a hosting service based around Wordpress so that


you won't have to worry about the database administration or updating the
software. As far as running on the IBM i, that shouldn't be a problem. If


you are going to look at CMS's then take a serious look at Wordpress as
well as Joomla and Drupal.
