The Best Blogging Software Around – WordPress

quesomanrulz.com – Hello again everyone, this video tutorial is about WordPress and how to install and use some of it’s basic features. Two ways of installing WordPress are covered, Fantastico and Manual. Fantastico is preferred by most people and me, it makes the process simpler. If you have access to Fantastico then you should definitely use that. http and 000webhost.com both have the Fantastico service available for their free users. I use http and would suggest that. Thanks to BlackJackEnt for suggesting this tutorial. byethost.com http wordpress.org twitter.com Visit quesomanrulz.co.cc for more!

How can I learn what open source content managment system will be best for my needs?

I want to start a small, localized, free singles community website. I want people to be able to register, participate in forums and polls as well as blogs. I would like if members could create their own profiles which could include blogs of their own.
Is there an open source CMS that would be best suited for this type of use?

What is the EASIEST way to setup a Linux Web Server?

I have a need to host some web sites, and have been trying to do so with an evaluation copy of Server 2k3. And while I have been able to get more than a few simple sites up, I am having trouble doing anything advanced, like setting up a simple in and out bound mail server, or getting PHP scripts to run.

One option I am considering is seeing if there is a SIMPLE (meaning totally newby friendly) Linux build that might work.

Does anyone have a recommendation on a Linux build that would include a web server, mail server and php compiler (or whatever the appropriate term is) that someone who has NEVER used linux could install, configure through some sort of reasonable "wizard," plug source files into and then go from there?

Thanks in advance!
