WordPress is a state-of-the-art publishing platform with a focus on aesthetics, web standards, and usability. WordPress is both free and priceless at the same time. More simply, WordPress is what you use when you want to work with your blogging software, not fight it. Particularly, for photographers WordPress is the right CMS to run a photo blog.
A good news is that a couple of days ago was released a new and improved version of this unbelievable good web software. As we can read on WordPress website:
Arm your vuvuzelas: WordPress 3.0, the thirteenth major release of WordPress and the culmination of half a year of work by 218 contributors, is now available for download (or upgrade within your dashboard). Major new features in this release include a sexy new default theme called Twenty Ten. Theme developers have new APIs that allow them to easily implement custom backgrounds, headers, shortlinks, menus (no more file editing), post types, and taxonomies. (Twenty Ten theme shows all of that off.) Developers and network admins will appreciate the long-awaited merge of MU and WordPress, creating the new multi-site functionality which makes it possible to run one blog or ten million from the same installation. As a user, you will love the new lighter interface, the contextual help on every screen, the 1,217 bug fixes and feature enhancements, bulk updates so you can upgrade 15 plugins at once with a single click, and blah blah blah…
I’m using WordPress as a CMS for my blog, as well for my photo blog and for several websites I run. I can witness that it’s a great tool and I am very thankful to Matt Mullenweg, the guy who launched it back in 2003, as well to the large community of web developers who are continuously improving it.
If you don’t have yet a blog or a photo blog, it is the time to approach WordPress – you will not have any regret I promise you. If you already did it, please share with use some of your experiences.
