This at least should give me a decent platform for evaluating the possiblities. That said, everything I've read so far seems to point to Wordpress.<br/><br/>Jas. Thanks Jamie,

Many moons ago Terinea Weblog started on blogger when I didn't know any better. If you need any help with PHP/MySQL I can give you a hand. What my techie guys don't know about PHP etc isn't worth knowing. WordPress is very simple to install. It has lots of pluggins that will help you increase your readership base.<br/><br/>I was meaning to write something on your post the other day, but I've been so busy this week, just not had time. Maybe tonight I will.<br/><br/>Jamie Jason, its got to WordPress.
