  • Currently it sounds like Wordpress is the top blogging platform
    out there right now. (from what I've read) Is that what you're using on your blog?

    I'm going to start my own blog in the near future but I'm having a tough time selecting
    between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
