Just So I Don't Forget The URLAs many of you know, I manage the Bend Blogs site. In my search for software to power it, I wanted something that was PHP-powered, and preferred a MySQL back-end. I also wanted something simple, and I came across lilina. It's simple, and it works, but not as cleanly or as nicely as I'd like. Version .7 is powering the site right now, and I considered moving the site to a more up-to-date lilina-variant. At this point, however, I think I'm just going to ditch lilina. Why? Because with a bit of work, I can get the whole thing working as an actual blog, powered by MovableType (which is far easier for me to work with), displaying local blog posts as blog posts on bendblogs.com with comments, permalinks, archives, etc... , as well as a combined RSS feed for all. How? With reBlog, which I REALLY wish I would've found a few months ago when I threw bendblogs.com online. So expect an overhaul of bendblogs.com sometime in the near future. Otherwise, if anybody has a blog I should add to the site, let me know. I'm up to 91 right now, and I'm sure I'm missing some (I know I'm missing some, as some folks requested their site not be listed, which is fine), but if you have any to send over, comment here. 3 CommentsPaul said on 08/06/05 @ 04:14 AM:I usually make that sort of thing myself. It gives you a lot more freedom. I only copy the time-consuming things from open-source applications. For a good free CMS, I recommend the reknowned Typo3. If you make something commercially, the GNU license will usually get your company into problems, since they loose the source code to their first client. In that case, you'll need to make it yourself or find software that has a more company-frienly license like the Standford agreement, if I recall correctly.
