Any good, *simple* blogging software out there?

I'm looking for a simple, open source, php blogging script. Something not as bloated as WordPress.

Ya there are but support will lack. Wordpress is the way :2 cents:

I don't want support. I want something open source that I can customize to my needs, which does exactly what I want and nothing more.

WP is nice if you want to create a blog. However, I just need blogging functionality integrated with a bunch of other scripts I'm working on. Finding something would save me the trouble of writing it myself, but if I have to, I think I can make the kind of script I need in half a day.

bloated? man im sorry but wordpress right now has to be one of the easiest and simple blogs to use.

It's easy and simple to use, but not really suitable for extensive editing and integration with other software.

Might wanna look at ikonboard, but support and development is totally dead.

Nucleus is pretty simple from the get go, with lots of functionality via plugins.

What about something like mambo? Its open source and in php, Ive seen blog plugins for it around. Im not sure if its as simple as your requesting though because I have never used it for any projects.

Wanna bet? :)
I've done some amazing stuff with WP. It's opensource and extremely easy to modify the base. What are you trying to do?

i use mambo more than anything but i've heard decent things about http://www.simplephpblog.com/

I was a fan of WP, too -- most of my blogs are still WP. But I won't install another one. Here's why:

Textpattern is a flexible and elegant content management system for powering all kinds of websites, including personal journals (weblogs) and commercial sites.

When it comes to publishing on the internet, beginners and experts alike are met with a bothersome paradox: word processors and graphics applications allow anyone to do a pretty good job of managing text and images on a personal computer, however the same skills do not translate to creating content on the world-wide web. Up til now, creating web content requires knowledge of several standards, intricacies of competing browsers, programming skills, computer-based graphic design, and it helps to have the patience of a saint. Those who soldier on anyway may find themselves further held back by the web?s purported inflexibility with written language, with its reluctance to cope with all but the plainest of text, or by the unpredictable results brought about by using ?WYSIWYG? web editors.

Textpattern is a content management system (CMS) designed to help overcome these hurdles and to simplify the production of well-structured, standards-compliant web pages. It is suitable for small and medium sized sites and incorporates many features found in other popular weblog software packages without forcing the user into a date-based organizational model. In Textpattern, the content is organized by type.

Plus, as you correctly observe, it's OPENSOURCE -- we are all COMPELLED to try the next great thing -- it it's not, who cares -- it was FREE and it took you 5 minutes to check it out. :)

TRY IT
IT'S FREE
IT'S GOOD

This looks good, I think I will have to give this a try.

Our blog software is NOT OPEN SOURCE, but what it is is 100% CSS template, and 3 server side include lines, so you can customize it virtually any way you see fit.

Oh ... and you said easy?? You can be up and running in 3 minutes! :thumbsup
