- Wordpress - as a CMS over a blogging tool. Zillions of inmstallations, well documented and supported.Lots of templates and plug-ins. Good if only 1, or a few, site editors and not a lot of static pages. More than 20? try something else? CNN use it.
- Joomla - most widely used CMS today, so lots of themes and plugins, but quite difficult (some say infuriating) to add your own. Not quite easy enough to walk away and leave the users to it. Also the structure of Sections >Categories >Articles seems quite restricting.
- Drupal - 2nd most widely used, probably. Not so rich in themes and uses arcane conepts like taxonomy. Very flexible but probably takes longer to get going. Easier to get a stucture you want than with Joomla.
- MODx - Very elegant and upcoming. Templating looks easier than either Drupal or Joomla. Fewer extras available because of shorter history.
- Whizzery - Jorogo's roll your own. Really simple to template . File manager. No DB required. Unfinished.
